The construction of Phase 1A and 1B of the industrial and distribution hub, Horizon 29, in Bolsover, Derbyshire is now complete. This new distribution development, located one mile from Junction 29A of the M1, will eventually span 1,150,256 sq ft and consist of eight warehouses delivered in three phases by McLaren Construction (Midlands and North).
Phase 1A includes two single-storey distribution warehouses (units 1 and 2) with sustainable features such as solar PVs, air source heat pumps, enhanced cladding, responsibly sourced sustainable materials, LED lighting, and electric vehicle charging points. These units have been constructed to a BREEAM Rating of ‘Excellent’ and an EPC ‘A’ Rating.
Phase 1B involved the construction of units 4 and 5, as well as all subsequent mechanical and electrical works, office fit outs, and external works for the conference laboratory car parks. The contractor also handled earthworks, CMC and VSC piling, concrete foundations, steel framing, lift shaft and stair installations, nets for roofing works, and office elevation cladding.
Gary Cramp, managing director of McLaren Construction (Midlands and North), stated, “We are delighted that works for both Phase 1A and 1B are finally complete. Once all phases are finished, Horizon 29 will be a premier distribution centre for the region, and an ideal hub for quality tenants looking for direct and easy access to the M1 north and south. We were pleased to be working alongside BentallGreenOak and Equation Properties for the second phase of this landmark scheme.”
