£100m logistics development under way

CONTRACTORS Caddick Construction have begun work on the £100m Wakefield logistics scheme Crosspoint33.

Caddick is underway with phase one of the development, installing roof sheeting at the site off Junction 33 of the M62.

Developers say it will create 1,800 jobs.

A phase two would include a further 535,000 sq ft of development.

Andrew Murray, managing director at Caddick Construction, said: “We’re progressing rapidly onsite as the new aerial shots show, commuters on the A1, M62 and A162 will be seeing daily changes at this stage. The laying of roof sheeting is progressing well, allowing us to prepare for the next major stage of build – applying the internal floor slabs.

“Crosspoint33 is a major project for Caddick Construction which will provide a huge investment boost and many new much needed jobs to the local area.”

The project is being delivered by Caddick Developments Ltd, with sister company Caddick Construction undertaking all building works. The TK MAXX building has been forward sold to specialist logistics investor Tritax.

Caddick Construction and Caddick Civil Engineering are the operational arms of Caddick Group plc. The group employs almost 500 people and turns over £90m.
