Balfour to start A40 upgrade after £35m funding deal

Developer Verdant Regeneration has submitted plans to redevelop the former Stanton Ironworks near Ilkeston in Derbyshire into a vast industrial and warehouse park.

The firm plans to transform the 200-acre site located near J25 of the M1 between Nottingham and Ilkeston, building 2m sq ft of new build warehouse and industrial space, with the ability to deliver a single building of around 1 million sq ft.

As well as extensive remediation and re-use of a large, brownfield site, the plans for New Stanton Park include consolidation of the existing rail line and provision of new rail spur.
