Occupiers sought for light industrial development

Work on a new business park in Bradford has nearly been completed.

Chartered surveyors Carter Towler has been appointed to market the new build business park at the top of the M606. The development of seven light industrial units, at Alpha Court, is next to Prologis Park.

The seven units have sizes ranging from 1,367 to 1,974 sq ft arranged around a central courtyard. Two of the units have already been let.

Carter Towler surveyor Hazel Cooper said: “We are really pleased to be marketing Alpha Court on behalf of Oakwell Securities.

“It’s a top quality new development and we are sure there will be considerable demand for these the units. The location is excellent being very close to the motor network as well as Bradford city centre transport links.

“The properties themselves have been carefully designed and include lots of high specification details such as full height electric loading doors, double skin insulated cladding, the latest energy saving lighting and fibre optic connectivity.

“The five remaining properties would be perfect for smaller or start-up businesses such as trade counters, warehousing or light industrial companies looking for well placed, quality units. As well as small business rates relief being available, we are offering affordable rents and flexible lease terms.”

Matthew Austin, of joint agents Robert Austin & Co, concluded: “This scheme follows on from a virtually identical scheme built by Oakwell Securities at Normanton, Junction 31 of the M62, which has proved very successful and is fully let.”
