190,000 sq ft warehouse given the go-ahead at Junction 28

Plans to build a 190,000 sq ft warehouse at Junction 28 of the M1 have been green lit by council bosses.

Rula Developments has been granted detailed planning permission to speculatively build the new Grade A premises on Fulwood Industrial Estate near Huthwaite, Nottinghamshire.

The unit, which will be built to BREEAM Excellent standard, is expected to be completed by Q2 2023.

M1 Agency and Burbage Realty have been appointed as join agents on the scheme.

Mark Hawthorne of Rula Developments said: “It is great news that we have secured a successful planning consent and can now move forward with the delivery of this highly sustainable and strategically located warehouse. J.28 is an established and sought-after occupier location, and we are confident of delivering a successful development bringing forward further job creation in the area.”

M1 Agency’s Toby Wilson said: “Obtaining planning approval is a major milestone in bringing forward the delivery of Fulwood 190. With continued strong levels of take-up and an intention to speculatively build out, we are confident of quickly securing occupier interest.”

Franco Capella of Burbage Realty added: “It is a real positive for the delivery of the warehouse that we have now secured planning consent. Combined with the underlying credentials of strong location and labour supply we welcome the development phase now coming forward.”
