Plans in for third phase of colossal industrial development

947,650 sq ft of industrial and logistics space could be brought forward in Coalville after Mountpark Logistics submitted plans to create two huge units at Stanton Lane.

The developer has filed a reserved matters planning application with Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council which details plans for a pair of BREEAM “Excellent” units sized 535,955 sq ft and 411,695 sq ft.

The scheme will be known as Mountpark Bardon III.

Mountpark has designated 50% of the site as green space to support biodiversity and provide a landscaped woodland park for employees and local residents.

The scheme is the third and final phase of Mountpark Bardon, which is located near Junction 22 of the M1.

DTRE and CBRE are representing Mountpark.

Tom Kilmister, senior development director at Mountpark UK & Ireland, said: “The success of the first two phases of Mountpark Bardon has demonstrated the high demand for large logistics facilities along the M1 corridor.

“By making sure detailed planning permission is in place, we can offer customers certainty of delivery to meet tight operational deadlines.

“As a business, we seek to offer our customers the best logistics property opportunities on the market, including high quality amenity space – such as roof terraces and landscaped surroundings – that will create an attractive working environment for employees.”
