The application straddles a County and District Boundary, but all four District and County Councils gave their support to the project. DHA co-ordinated the planning application process and were subsequently commissioned to work with the local authorities to discharge conditions.

Through close liaison with the local planning authority, planning permission was obtained under delegated powers just 9 weeks after submission.

DHA have also secured outline permission for a masterplan covering the wider 98 hectare site for a mix of industrial uses together with extensive ecological mitigation areas.
