Detailed final plans for a huge new logistics park on the edge of Ipswich have been submitted to planners - with developers hoping work can get under way this year.
Up to 1,500 new jobs are expected to be created at the 60-acre Orwell Logistics Park alongside the A14 at Nacton.
New plans deposited with East Suffolk Council show how the new buildings and site will look, and also finalise access, layout and landscaping.
Outline plans were approved in spring 2018 for the land next door to Ransomes Europark to be developed with four large buildings of one million sq ft, designed to be flexible for a range of business uses.

Up to 1,500 new jobs could be created at a huge new logistics park on the edge of Ipswich.
Developers are about to submit detailed plans for the project - and are hoping work on site can get underway this year.
The scheme will see a 60-acre site with access from the A14 next door to Ransomes Europark developed with four large buildings of one million sq ft, designed to be flexible for a range of business uses.
BentallGreenOak and its development partner Equation Properties say the Orwell Logistics Park will be a world-class scheme and bring a big boost to the area s economy, particularly needed as it recovers from the Covid-19 pandemic.
