Full Planning Application Submitted for Logistics City Andover at Walworth Business Park
Logistics City Andover has submitted a new detailed planning application for a four-unit industrial and logistics scheme totalling 452,000 sq ft at Walworth Business Park, Andover.
The revised proposals represent the next phase in the evolution of the site and, if approved, will provide the opportunity to deliver high-quality industrial accommodation across four units ranging from 31,695 sq ft to 219,185 sq ft. Securing a detailed planning consent will enable future occupier requirements to be delivered with shorter pre-commencement timescales.
The revised planning application reflects a strong commitment to sustainability, incorporating a range of environmental and social initiatives. The scheme responds to the increasing demand for low-carbon, energy-efficient industrial space, aligning with modern ESG standards.
Key sustainability measures include:
- Targeting a minimum ‘Very Good’ BREEAM rating, with an ambition to reach ‘Excellent’.
- Solar panels integrated across the site to support sustainable energy generation.
- Multiple EV charging points to accommodate the transition to electric fleets and personal vehicles.
- A minimum 10% Biodiversity Net Gain, enhancing local biodiversity through offsite improvements and targeted green infrastructure initiatives.
- Dedicated cycle storage and a new cycle path connecting the site to the adjacent village and town centre, promoting eco-friendly commuting options.
The four buildings will incorporate high-performance materials, insulation and water-efficient technologies to minimise environmental impact and reduce operational carbon emissions.
These measures ensure that Logistics City Andover will provide a high-quality industrial hub while supporting the evolving sustainability expectations of occupiers and the wider community.
The site’s strategic location and established business community at Walworth Business Park make Plot 90 an ideal location for businesses seeking to relocate, expand or establish a presence within a well-connected business park.
Key highlights of the revised planning application include:
- 452,000 sq ft across four units comprising: 31,695 sq ft, 63,005 sq ft, 138,540 sq ft & 219,185 sq ft (GEA – Gross External Area).
- High-quality institutional specification providing building heights ranging from 10m–15m eaves.
- All four units will provide between 4 and 22 dock levellers.
- Situated within the established Walworth Business Park, offering excellent connectivity and access to a wide range of amenities.
The proposals represent a significant investment in the future of Walworth Business Park, supporting economic growth by providing high-quality industrial accommodation designed to meet the needs of modern businesses while creating employment and inward investment opportunities for the region.
