Shrewsbury industrial park to get £3.5m upgrade
A Shrewsbury industrial park is to get a £3.5 million upgrade to provide opportunities for existing and new businesses.
Several buildings on Centurion Park, in Kendal Road, will be demolished to make way for 24 new units.
Work on the scheme, which affects almost half of the seven-acre site, starts this month, with completion scheduled for next summer.
The new units will range in size from 1,237sq ft to 2,507sq ft and meet up-to-date environmental legislation. They are designed to offer flexible spaces for businesses to grow in a secure, vibrant environment.
The work is being carried out by Shrewsbury-based developer Morris Property.
Liz Lowe, head of estates at Morris Property, said: “This is an exciting phase in Centurion Park’s evolution which will enhance the site and deliver real benefits to both our existing tenants, many of whom are looking to expand into larger units. This significant investment underlines that commitment and our confidence in Centurion Park as a commercial location.
“The new units will be finished to a high-quality and will offer value for money to tenants on flexible terms.”
Centurion Park has been owned and managed by Morris Property since it acquired and refurbished the site in 2002 and boasts a diverse mix of businesses from trade counters to vehicle repair workshops and storage units.
