Jones Bros Civil Engineering UK has been appointed to help accelerate plans to expand a business park in Cheshire by 50 acres.

The firm has been selected to build a new section of spine road at the Cheshire Green Employment Park (Cheshire Green) after completing the initial phase of site works.

The development infrastructure will be financed by a £8.35m loan from North West Evergreen Fund, arranged by CBRE's Lending team.

Ruthin-headquartered Jones Bros was the main contractor of the development, with activity including designing and building a one-kilometre spine road, a roundabout, and junctions to each of 10 units.

Stage two will see the North Wales-based firm double the length of the highway to enable the full delivery of nearly 1.5m sq ft of warehouses.


As part of the highways project, the company's 20-strong team will also install a drainage system and carry out kerbing, surfacing, and landscaping.

In addition, streetlights will be fitted and connected, whilst a new foul treatment plant and attenuation basin are to be installed.

Jones Bros senior contract manager Mike Davies said: "It's wonderful to be able to play our part in the second phase of the scheme having enjoyed working on the initial stage.

"We are looking forward to further strengthening our relationship with all parties associated with the development, from the landowner Phillip Posnett and project manager Avison Young to the local community."

Cheshire Green is on the A51 between Calveley and Barbridge, and next to Boughey Distribution. The location benefits from its easy connections with key motorways including the M6 and M56 as well as the A55 in North Wales.

The units, which are ideal for industrial, warehouse, distribution, and storage use, range from two to 20 acres in size and have access to superfast fibre broadband as well as ample parking and a frequent bus service.

Legat Owen and Fisher German are marketing the units.

Activity is scheduled for completion in July 2024.
