Network Space Developments (NSD) has obtained detailed planning permission for a 30-acre warehousing and distribution scheme on Newmarket Lane, Wakefield, near Junction 30 of the M62.
The 152,000 sq. ft. development will include 12 flexible storage and office units, a new access road, car parking, service yards, landscaping, and supporting infrastructure. The site is positioned within an established industrial and logistics hub with major operators such as Amazon, Newcold, and Phoenix Healthcare.
The broader Newmarket Lane commercial area spans approximately 200 acres, with potential for up to 1 million sq. ft of development. Currently employing around 1,500 people, the area is expected to generate 1,500 jobs upon full build-out. Planning consultancy Spawforths advised NSD on the scheme.
