Plans to extend a riverside business park in Sunderland have been submitted to city development chiefs. Earlier in July, 2022, Sunderland City Council’s planning department received an application for land off Crown Road in the Southwick ward.
The proposed site includes parcels of land to the west and east of Quay West Riverside Business Village, near the city’s Grade II-listed Queen Alexandra Bridge. New plans from Adderstone Projects Limited include building new “flexible commercial units” with associated access, car parking, cycle parking, bin stores and landscaping.
A submitted planning and economic statement confirms the scheme would be an extension to the existing Quay West Business Park. If approved, the new buildings would aim to “attract further businesses to the area and assist in Sunderland’s aim to promote economic growth and boost employment.”
