Application submitted for 6.5m sq ft Northern Gateway



Outline planning permission for the first phase of the Northern Gateway, covering 6.5 million sq ft of space, has been submitted.


The application has been made to Rochdale and Bury Councils, for the site that sits within the Atom Valley Mayoral Development Zone.

This is being brought forward by the Northern Gateway Development Vehicle, a partnership between Russell LDP and Harworth Group.

The submission covers space for advanced manufacturing, logistics and industrial use with opportunities for retail, leisure and a hotel.

The partnership estimates this will support up to 10,000 jobs and deliver around £630m in annual economic value to the wider region.

A public consultation was also filed by the partnership earlier this year to gain local input.
