St. Modwen Logistics is continuing to bolster its portfolio of urban logistics space with the commencement of steelworks on three units, totalling more than 185,000 sq ft, at its brand-new development in Basingstoke.
St. Modwen Park Basingstoke is a 11.3-acre site and will be developed in several phases with the first phase set to complete in Q3 of this year. Three units of 36,987, 51,572 and 97,781 sq ft will be delivered, providing sought-after urban logistics and industrial space for the area. The scheme is scheduled for completion in late July 2021.
Strategically located between Junction 6 and 7 of the M3 and within 2 miles of Basingstoke town centre, St. Modwen Park Basingstoke is well placed to capitalise on the town’s existing diverse economy, providing fast access to London and Southampton.
St. Modwen Logistics’ plans could create a further 250 new jobs for the region, with the scheme designed to help meet the growing demand for high-quality logistics space in the area. Alongside job generation, the company is also investing funds into the town to further boost prospects in the region.
