Industrial real estate developer Panattoni has submitted a planning application for one of the largest speculative logistics facilities in South Yorkshire.The application is for a 417,570 sq ft facility, called Panattoni Doncaster 420, next to Doncaster Sheffield Airport. Panattoni acquired the 18.4-acre site with outline planning consent from Peel L&P in March.Panattoni Doncaster 420 will be built to BREEAM ‘Excellent’ and EPC ‘A’ ratings with a host of sustainability features. It also will benefit from 15m clear internal height, 34 dock doors, three level access doors, a 50m yard with parking for 74 HGVs and up to 1.5 MVa of power.Panattoni is aiming to start construction later this year with completion in the third quarter of 2023.Dan Burn, development director at Panattoni, said: “This is a superb logistics site with direct access to local, regional and global markets. Our planning application has been submitted just six weeks after we acquired the site, which reflects our desire and ability to bring much needed speculative development forward as quickly as possible.”CPP, Colliers International and Burbage Realty have been appointed as letting agents.
