Phase two of the Tunstall Arrow development will provide an additional 109,250 sq ft of industrial workspace on the eight-acre plot.
Caddick Construction started on site in November 2021 and is expected to have the new buildings ready for occupation by autumn this year (2022).
Acquired by Network Space in 2013, Tunstall Arrow is a 28-acre former colliery site adjoining the A527 (James Brindley Way) in Tunstall, Stoke-on-Trent.
Phase two comprises five sheds ranging from 13,000 to 30,000 sq ft. Work also includes significant remediation to address historic coal workings and disused mine shafts.
Phase One opened in 2019, with tenants including the Dutch tool and equipment hire company Boels Rental.
鈥淟ogistics and industrial demand continues to be extremely strong across the northwest,鈥� said Network Space development director Simon Peters. 鈥淭unstall Arrow will attract further inward investment and secure hundreds of new jobs for the Stoke-on-Trent.鈥�
Ian Threadgold, managing director of Caddick Construction (North West), added: 鈥淭he team are keen to bring this brownfield site back to life, particularly with the additional challenges posed by the聽 former colliery workings.鈥澛犅�
