Work completed on phase one of £100m West Yorkshire distribution and logistics scheme

Construction work has been completed on the first phase of the £100m distribution and logistics scheme, Crosspoint33, located immediately off Junction 33 of the M62 near Wakefield.

The completed building will house the new UK processing and distribution centre for TJX Europe, the parent company of retail brands TK Maxx and HomeSense, providing more than 1.2m sq. ft. of space.

The project has been delivered by multi-sector property developer Caddick Developments Ltd, with sister company Caddick Construction undertaking all building works on the project.

Once fully operational, the scheme will provide up to 1,800 new jobs.

Phase two has outline planning consent and can accommodate up to a further 600,000 sq ft of development on a build to suit basis.

Myles Hartley, managing director at Caddick Developments, said: “We are proud that phase one of this landmark project is now successfully completed and set to be home to such a big name in the retail industry.

“Crosspoint33 Logistics Park is providing a huge investment boost and new employment opportunities to the local area and we look forward to securing an occupier for phase two and welcoming more big names to the site.”

Andrew Murray, managing director at Caddick Construction, added: “It’s been a pleasure to work on this high-profile project. The finished building looks very impressive – as is appropriate for its prominent location alongside the M62.

“Caddick Construction welcomes the significant investment that TK Maxx will bring to the area, and we look forward to working on phase two very soon.”

Caddick Construction and Caddick Civil Engineering are the operational arms of Caddick Group PLC.
