Plans submitted to bring growth and jobs to Crewe at WestonM6

We’ve submitted a planning application to Cheshire East Council to bring forward WestonM6 – a new 1.3m sq ft highly-sustainable logistics and business park, just a stone’s throw from the M6 in Crewe that will supercharge growth and create thousands of new jobs.

As part of the ‘hybrid’ submission, we’re also seeking detailed approval for the first phase of regeneration, which will include three high-quality industrial buildings totalling approximately 750,000 sq ft. As part of the wider regeneration, we’ll deliver a range of amenities for the community, including landscaped nature areas, a 3km active walking trail and a wildlife ‘pocket’ park.

Spread out across 64 acres, the scheme will create up to 2,900 new jobs for the community, including 165 jobs during construction phase and generate an additional £3.4m in business rates.

Alan McBride, projects director, said:

We’re bringing forward WestonM6 with landowners, The Witter Trust and the Co-Operative.
