The building, located at the intersection of Ross Avenue and Park Street, will house Rosenau Transport LTD., Acropolis Warehousing Inc., and GLS Group of companies.
PLANS to build a business park on the site of the former Leyland test track that could create up to 260 jobs have been unveiled. The plans for the development, to be known as Titan Business Park, were submitted by PWA Planning on behalf of Preston-based Providence Gate Group Holdings to South Ribble Council. The new business park will include office facilities, warehouse buildings, a petrol station, drive-through restaurant and car parks. Province Gate Holdings director Charlie Openshaw said: “Our aim is to make this an attractive meeting place which complements the rest of the site. “It will provide individuals working at, or visiting, these units the opportunity to eat, drink and work on site, without having to travel extensively.”

Preston-based developer Providence Gate Group Holdings has lodged plans to create a 208,000 sq ft business park as part of the mixed-use redevelopment of the former vehicle testing facility.
The scheme, to be known as Titan Business Park, is the latest application to come forward as part of the overhaul of the 120-acre site owned by developer Property Capital, and would occupy a 14-acre plot to the north.
As well as the business park, which would feature a mix of offices and industrial units ranging from 750 sq ft to 40,000 sq ft, plans for the wider redevelopment of the Leyland Motors test track include up to 950 homes.
