Developer Chancerygate has submitted plans to speculatively develop 53,000ft² of Grade A sustainable urban logistics space in Old Trafford, Manchester.
Called UrbanX, the proposed development will comprise two leasehold units, one offering 30,200ft² and the other 22,800ft².
Both of these developments will both target EPC ‘A+’ and BREEAM ‘Excellent’ ratings. Once complete, the scheme will have a gross development value of around £15m.
Located on Brindley Road, less than one mile from Manchester city centre, the two-acre site is adjacent to the Bridgewater Way arterial route and the established Trafford Park and Salford Quays areas.
Chancerygate senior development director, Chris Brown, said: “Our proposed UrbanX development will enable urban logistics occupiers to conveniently serve the expanding Manchester city centre.
“The development will also offer a Grade A opportunity to those occupiers being impacted and displaced by the widespread regeneration plans coming into effect around Wharfside and Old Trafford Football Ground.
“The proposed scheme is targeting best in class ESG credentials and specification, appealing to modern logistics and distribution businesses across the region.
“We now look forward to working closely with Trafford Borough Council to progress our planning application and to deliver a prime economic asset for the city.”
