Daresbury Park Developments, a joint venture between Maple Grove Developments and the De Vere Group, is extending its Daresbury Park office scheme in Cheshire by 30 acres (12ha).
This follows the completion of a £2m infrastructure contract on the new phases for the park, at junction 11 of the M56 motorway.
Opening up the additional land to the north of Red Brow Lane paves the way for a 40,000 sq ft sq ft (3,716 sq m) office building, which received planning permission this spring.
The 1.6m sq ft (148,640 sq m) park has attracted occupiers including BNFL, ABB, HS Administrative Services, Vistorm and the De Vere Group.
Jim Carter, director of Maple Grove Developments, the lead partner in the joint venture with De Vere Group, said: “This investment is part of our long-term strategy for the park and it will ensure that there can be an immediate and deliverable response to market demand.”
GVA Grimley and Dunlop Heywood Lorenz are joint letting agents on the development.
