Chancerygate and Bridges Fund Management have submitted plans to speculatively build 170,000 sq ft of Grade A urban logistics space in Adlington, Cheshire.
Avro Business Park will comprise 11 units ranging from 7,000 sq ft to 29,000 sq ft. The proposed scheme, which is located off London Road, south of Poynton town centre, has a GDV of circa £36m.
All of the units will be fitted with active and passive EV charging points and solar cells on their roofs to support the development’s target of BREEAM Excellent, EPC A+ and net zero carbon for regulated energy.
Chris Brown, development director at Chancerygate, said: “The location of this site has been transformed by the completion of the new Poynton relief road and is now directly connected to the airport and the M56 in under 10 minutes’ drive, whilst also providing excellent connectivity to wider south Manchester and Cheshire markets.
“The site is now accessible to a very diverse range of occupiers and we have already received strong interest to satisfy larger design and build requirements from occupiers who are desperate to expand or consolidate their operations in the Cheshire/south Manchester area.
Guy Bowden, partner at Bridges Fund Management, added: “At Avro Park, we’re aiming to develop a high-quality scheme that will create up to 250 jobs and support the growth of the local economy. As always, we’re focused on achieving the highest possible sustainability standards – not only because it’s better for the planet but also because it makes the units more attractive to the many potential occupiers locally.”
Savills and Williams Sillitoe are joint agents for the new scheme.
