Midlands Logistics Park is the largest strategic logistics scheme currently being bought forward in the region.

Rail connected and served by substantially upgraded road links, Midlands Logistics Park is just minutes away from the A14.

A strategically vital route, the A14 forms part of the TENTEC Trans European Network (part of route E24), which connects to Felixstowe as part of the North Sea – Mediterranean route, one of Europe’s most important freight corridors.

SMYTHS TOYS

The dualled A43 link road has shortened journey times to the A14, and along the A14 itself significant upgrades have substantially reduced journey times between Midlands Logistics Park and national markets.

The junction at Cathorpe is being replaced by new ‘free flow’ links that connect the M6 to the A14 and M1 to the A14 in both directions. This is dramatically improving capacity and reducing journey times at one of the most important interchanges in England.

Further improvements on the Cambridge to Huntingdon section will significantly improve the flow of traffic from the A14 to the M11, offering much quicker access via this route into London.

Access to the M1 south from the A14 is via the A43 and A45. The busiest section of the A43 will have been dualled by 2019, further improving journey times.

Rail offers the potential for economies of scale, improved reliability and a more sustainable supply chain. It is growing in importance for logistics operations, and the bigger the logistics scheme, the bigger the potential benefits of its rail connection.

Not only is Midlands Logistics Park rail connected, the line itself is being improved. The rail link between Corby and Kettering, which is currently single track, is to be dualled, effectively doubling capacity.

The line is also to be electrified as part of Network Rail’s wider commitment to electrifying the entire Midland Main Line, a line it sees as “the vital long distance corridor that serves the UK’s industrial heartland”.

The bi-modal capacity of Midlands Logistics Park connects the scheme to this heartland, and to the country’s ports and population centres, in the most efficient and flexible way for occupiers.

The electrification of the Corby branch line will be completed by 2019.

savingshuge workforce

Corby’s workforce is highly adaptable across a range of commercial and manufacturing processes. It also includes one of the largest pools of logistics and warehousing staff in the county, evidenced by the success of a significant number of major distribution operations based in and around the town.

The town continues to grow as its economy goes from strength to strength. Corby’s population grew by 14.5% between 2001 and 2011. The surrounding areas of East Northants and Kettering also grew by 15.2% and 16.8% respectively over the same period, showing the rate at which the labour pool, as well as demand from local markets, is increasing.

This growth is set to continue, with North Northamptonshire setting a strategic house building target of 33, 851 by 2021 to meet expected demand.

Such is the importance of logistics to the area that Northampton College and Tresham College both offer Warehousing and Distribution apprenticeships, and Northampton College also has a specialist academy to train and prepare the next generation of workers in the logistics industry.

Financial assistance

A period of rates discount is highly likely for new occupiers at Midlands Logistics Park, thanks to the boost their business will give to the local economy.

Corby still has Assisted Area Status, and European structural and investment funds are available to eligible business in the area, both for business support and employment and skills activity.
