MIRA motors ahead with technology park development
Our role
- We provided the Motor Industry Research Association (MIRA) with planning advice in relation to the development of the site.
- This included seeking planning permission for a new MIRA Technology Park which will provide 162,500 sq m of high quality R&D space and create a proposed focus for European R&D operations for global vehicle manufacturers.
- The application required a parameter-based Environmental Impact Assessment and a consultation strategy.
Results
- Planning permission was granted in March 2012.
- The site has subsequently been granted Enterprise Zone status.
- Turley provided advice in relation to the development of the Catapult building and is currently involved in delivering various aspects of the wider technology park.
