Plans revealed for £50m Warrington motorway services

Caddick Construction is due to start work next month on five industrial units totalling 170,000 sq ft at Birchwood Park.

Work is set to start in the coming weeks on one of the largest private-rented schemes in Warrington, featuring 362 apartments alongside 6,400 sq ft of retail, with Liverpool-based Nobles on board as main contractor.

Proposals to build 362 apartments alongside 6,400 sq ft of retail and a multi-storey car park are set to start on site after Ram Properties completed a £3m land sale to allow the project to go ahead.

Great Sankey's neighbourhood hub is on target to be fully open early next year after a troubled construction programme that has seen Warrington Council make more than 250 changes to the original scheme.

Warrington’s Time Square, set to complete in early 2020, will deliver an office for the council, a cinema, leisure, retail, extensive public realm, and a market. Working with contractor Vinci, Muse Developments is delivering a project it hopes will be transformational for the town.

Taking a three-year lease, Caddick Construction has relocated its North West office to Trident Business Park to support the delivery of projects in the region including Moda’s £154m Angel Gardens.

Warrington Council’s executive board will next week be asked to give the go-ahead to Omega Local Highways Phase 3, a series of improvements to the road network around the Omega site, now firmly established as a logistics hotspot and moving into a phase of residential development.

Proposals to build housing on a green belt site in Lymm, currently used as a caravan park, are due to be discussed by Warrington’s development management committee when it meets next week.

The executive board of Warrington Council has approved a town centre public realm project and a road improvement scheme to support the ongoing highway works at junction 8 of the M62, the key junction for the Omega distribution hub and Lingley Mere.
