Join the UK's most nationally significant rail-served logistics development at West Midlands Interchange, offering up to eight million square feet of prime logistics and industrial facilities in the heart of the UK's rail and road network. This forward-thinking development is designed to change the logistics world by creating jobs, supporting the local community, and providing sustainable foundations for the future logistics sector.
Comprising one of the largest sites of its kind in Europe, West Midlands Interchange offers flexible logistics solutions on a massive scale with space from 200,000 to 1.2 million square feet. This pioneering development provides a range of facilities that are both sustainably designed and adaptable to suit the ever-growing economy and needs of the modern logistics occupier. With consent to develop a key strategic rail freight interchange and offering up to eight million square feet of Grade A logistics accommodations, this DCO-approved site is an advantageous new campus ready to support growing businesses.
Sustainability is at the heart of West Midlands Interchange development, with carbon emissions amongst the lowest for an industrial estate of this size. Occupy BREEAM Excellent-rated units with photovoltaic panels, solar panels, and EV charging points, and enjoy a carefully considered design to minimise environmental impact and support occupiers to achieve their ESG targets. Built to Net Zero Carbon in construction with future-proof energy-generation measures in place, West Midlands Interchange is here to support your green ambitions. As part of this regenerative scheme, two new country parks, totalling 44 hectares, will also be created to retain and support local wildlife whilst enriching the local community.
West Midlands Interchange has partnered with local stakeholders to create the West Midlands Interchange Employment Partnership, a commitment to maximising local employment during the development's construction and operation. The commitment to the local community has also been enhanced by over £8 million in financial contributions within the DCO obligations, pledging over £1.7 million to support jobs, skills, and training for local people. The development will also create over 8,500 jobs, of which 40% will be higher-skilled and administrative positions, representing 17% of Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire Local Enterprise Partnership's new jobs for 2030.
West Midlands Interchange is located in a highly sought-after location close to two of the UK's most important transport routes: the West Coast Mainline and the M6 motorway. Primed for national and international logistics-focused operations, this brand-new campus development can efficiently serve transport via road, rail, air, and sea. Bordered by the A449 to the west and the A5 to the north, the new A5/A449 link road opens up a new, publicly accessible route, reshaping and improving transport through the area. The West Midlands Interchange's new strategic rail freight interchange, due to be operational by 2026, will also provide a cleaner, greener, and more efficient alternative to the UK's road network, producing 70% less carbon dioxide, up to 15 times lower nitrogen oxide emissions, and nearly 90% lower particulate emissions than road freight tonne for tonne.
With up to 8 million square feet of prime logistics facilities available, this progressive, forward-thinking development is now seeking its newest occupiers to join the West Midlands Interchange legacy. Please contact the agents for more information.
