Plans for the next stage of development at Towcester Park in West Northamptonshire have been recommended for approval, signalling continued progress on one of the region’s largest employment sites.
Developer IM Properties has submitted detailed proposals for two industrial units measuring around 50,000 and 131,000 square feet within Zone B of the 45-acre site. The applications are expected to be reviewed by West Northamptonshire Council’s Strategic Planning Committee later this month.
The wider Towcester Park scheme, which received hybrid planning approval in 2022, is designed to deliver around 1,464 full-time equivalent jobs once fully operational. Earlier this year, detailed plans for two large facilities in Zone C—covering 161,000 and 468,000 square feet—were granted permission following a comprehensive planning review.
The development aims to enhance industrial and logistics capacity in the East Midlands, an area experiencing high demand for modern employment space. If approved, construction on the new units would represent another significant step in implementing the park’s long-term master plan and enhancing the region’s commercial infrastructure.
