Manse and J Smart & Co (Contractors) have secured planning consent for the Eurocentral Gateway industrial and logistics development at Eurocentral, Motherwell.

The development will comprise two units of approximately 80,000 sq ft and 120,000 sq ft. The units will feature 12.5m eaves heights, large yards, generous power supplies, office space, EV charging points, energy monitoring systems and PV panels fitted as standard.

Construction is anticipated to start in the autumn with practical completion expected by autumn 2027.

Craig Semple, director at CBRE Scotland, which has been appointed as joint leasing agent alongside Colliers, said: “Planning consent for Eurocentral Gateway is a significant step forward for the Central Belt industrial market. Demand for prime, well-specified space remains strong and supply is still tight, so the prospect of two new buildings of this quality at one of Scotland’s best-connected locations will no doubt be of interest to occupiers.”

Iain Davidson, director in Colliers industrial and logistics team, added: “Securing planning permission means Eurocentral Gateway is now moving from aspiration to reality. The specification is among the strongest we’ve seen on the M8 corridor, and its position gives occupiers a connectivity advantage that is genuinely difficult to match elsewhere in Scotland. We anticipate strong occupier interest in these buildings and would urge interested businesses to engage with us early to avoid missing out.”

Manse and J Smart & Co (Contractors) were advised by planning consultant Porter Planning.
