Associated British Ports has submitted proposals for the development of land at its Stallingborough Interchange site, next to the A180 in Lincolnshire.
The move follows the acquisition of the 227.5-acre site in December 2023, with the view to create £200m industrial estate for new and existing customers of the ports of Immingham and Grimsby.
An outline planning application covers 96 acres of the site to be targeted towards the automotive sector. It includes external storage and distribution facilities alongside up to 129,166 sq ft of associated buildings, landscaping, infrastructure and ground-mounted solar panels.
ABP is looking to start on site next year.
The reminder of the site benefits from an existing planning consent to deliver up to 1.5m sq ft of industrial and manufacturing space.
Greg Lacey, head of property for Humber at ABP, said: “The site is one of the largest development land parcels in such proximity to the ports, and of significant scale versus wider opportunities in the Yorkshire region. The sizeable investment we made in this shows ABP is a key player in supporting the growth of commercial activities within the region.”
Andrew Dawes, regional director of the Humber ports, added: “Demand is expected to increase for energy generation, automotive storage, bulk warehousing, and storage and distribution uses and this new site will ensure the delivery of state-of-the-art infrastructure, facilities, and technological innovation for new and existing customers.”
