Plans to build a £58m “world-leading” science facility on the outskirts of Bristol have been approved.
Wiltshire-based pharmaceuticals firm Vectura, which specialises in respiratory medicines and inhaler devices, has been given the go-ahead by South Gloucestershire Council for a new 10,000 m sq facility based at Bristol & Bath Science Park.
Vectura said its “Inhalation Centre of Excellence” in Emersons Green, which is anticipated to be completed in 2025, would expand its operations and provide new research and development jobs for scientists and engineers, as well as in manufacturing and laboratory services.
