Tameside Industrial and Commercial Land Supply

 

Industrial and Commercial Land Report 2021/22

For the purposes of the Industrial and Commercial Land Supply Report, employment uses are E(g) (business), B2 (general industry) and B8 (storage and distribution) plus sui generis commercial uses which have similar characteristics to industry or storage. This report encompasses an update on the employment land supply, completions and analysis for the period 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022.

The total supply of land available for employment development purposes in Tameside on 31st March 2022 was 37.75 hectares (see Appendix 1 of the PDF report below for the full listing).

The supply figure consists of:

• Vacant sites that are allocated or designated for employment use in the UDP, or that have permission for employment generating development; and
• Non-vacant sites that have permission for redevelopment or for extensions to existing premises for employment purposes.

Sites are removed from the supply when development is complete or additional information comes forward relating to their future prospects.

The inclusion of a site in the available supply does not indicate any intentions of the owner(s) to sell the site or otherwise offer it for employment development. Much of the supply consists of (a) sites unlikely to be brought forward in the short to medium term, or (b) sites whose owners intend to develop for their own business purposes.
