Henry Boot has won planning consent for a £114m industrial and logistics scheme in the West Midlands.
The group’s property development business, Henry Boot Developments (HBD), is delivering the Phoenix 10 industrial and logistics scheme on behalf of partners Walsall Council, Homes England and the West Midlands Combined Authority. Situated close to the M6, the 44-acre scheme will provide up to 620,000 square foot of employment space and is expected to create up to 1,000 jobs. Henry Boot claimed it is the largest undeveloped site in the Black Country. The developer will appoint a contractor to the scheme in due course.
The Black Country Local Enterprise Partnership has provided grant funding for the completion of remediation works.
