Industrial property developer Mileway has tasked Triton Construction with building four units ranging from 2,723 sq ft up to 36,383 sq ft – totalling 76,000 sq ft in all.
Planning consent was granted in July 2021 and Triton has already started site preparation with anticipated completion by the end of summer 2022.
All four units are being built to a BREEAM ‘Very Good’ rating. They have fully-fitted first floor offices, reception areas and CCTV monitoring.
Triton Construction managing director Paul Clarkson said: “We are delighted to secure this significant contract as our first project with Mileway. The site, formerly an ambulance depot, needed some remediation. We have demolished the existing structures and are now progressing steelworks for the project and will complete the four buildings along with first floor office fit out, installing new mains services, hardstanding yards and new access roads.
“Our work in delivering logistics accommodation continues to expand as the sector grows exponentially alongside the e-commerce boom. We recently secured a contract to build a 185,000 sq ft unit at Stakehill 185 in Manchester, our biggest yet, and anticipate that this sector will account for around 50% of our work this year."
