Contractor appointed on multi-million pound speculative development
Midlands contractor A& Construction has been appointed to deliver a massive regeneration scheme in the Black Country which will create up to 500,000 sq ft of prime warehouse and industrial space.
CEG secured planning permission for the regeneration and is now managing the speculative development of the first phase of units at Vaughan Park in Tipton.
The first phase will consist of up to five units totalling 80,000 sq ft. The first of these will be ready for occupation later this year.
To celebrate A&H Construction’s appointment to deliver the scheme, Cllr Paul Moore joined CEG at a ground breaking ceremony.
Moore said: “There is no doubt that Sandwell offers businesses wishing to expand and grow a chance to move to an area at the forefront of industry, with established supply chains, great access to the motorway network as well as a highly skilled workforce.
How Vaughan Park will look
“The investment and jobs to be created by the Vaughan Park development are very welcome and is further demonstration of Sandwell being a great place to invest.”
Halesowen-based A&H Construction started work on the 28 acre site last week and the units will be ready for occupation later this year.
John Maley, from A&H Construction, said: “As a local business we are proud to be involved with this formidable project, our aim is to build on the relationships we have with the local supply chain to ensure this project is delivered as planned and exceeds expectations.”
CBRE and Bulleys have been appointed as agents to market the site.
