Bootle Girobank campus redevelopment resurfaces
Total Developments is planning to build around 390,000 sq ft of industrial units on the 22-acre Bridle Road site, which was most recently occupied by Santander.
Total’s proposed redevelopment of the Bootle Girobank campus comes three years after Santander scrapped its own plans to flatten the 645,000 sq ft office complex and build a modern 220,000 sq ft replacement for 2,500 staff.
Santander then sold the site, which had been vacant since 2021. Demolition of the campus began last year.
Total has lodged an EIA Scoping Request with Sefton Council that sets out the scope of its plans. The developer wants to build nine units on the site ranging from 15,500 sq ft 130,000 sq ft.
The developer’s vision is to create a “highly sustainable employment location, with employment facilities designed to the highest standard and incorporating sustainable design features”, according to a planning statement prepared by Stantec.
Stantec and C4 Projects are advising Total on the proposals. To learn more, search for reference number DC/2024/01030 on Sefton Council’s planning portal.
On a neighbouring site, Royal London is in the process of building the first four warehouses – totalling 345,000 sq ft – at the 50-acre Atlantic Park site off Dunnings Bridge Road.
