Logistics developer Tritax Symmetry has been granted planning permission by Stroud District Council for Symmetry Park Gloucester on a 67-acre site at Junction 12 of the M5 motorway.

The developer has gained approval for a hybrid planning application for 1.1million sq ft of development including detailed consent for two buildings of 163,500 sq ft and 241,000 sq ft and outline permission for a further 700,000 sq ft of build-to-suit opportunities.

Jonathan Dawes, head of planning at Tritax Symmetry commented: “This decision undoubtedly paves the way for further growth and investment in the wider Gloucester area.”

Joseph Skinner, development director at Tritax Symmetry added: “The site occupies a prominent position on the strategic motorway route (M5, J12) linking the Midlands to the south-west. The detailed consent enables us to deliver new logistics facilities quickly and give much-needed supply for high-quality units over 100,000 sq ft.”

The project team includes Trinity Project Management, AJA Architects, Feasibility QS, Dunwoody M&E, Burrows Graham C&S, EDP Ecology & Landscaping & WSP Transport.
