HFF from Junction 11A of the M1
An enormous new distribution centre for Lidl is being built right now.
History:~
25/01/2018
Lidl UK have announced that they plan to open their new distribution centre in Houghton Regis, Central Bedfordshire, following the sale agreed with the Houghton Regis Management Company.
The new distribution centre will be the largest of Lidl's warehouses in the UK, based on a 58 acres (23-hectare) site adjacent to Junc 11a of the M1.
This is the first deal to be announced from the North of Houghton Regis development site.
Central Bedfordshire Council have been instrumental in facilitating this opportunity which follows extensive investment in the area to complete both the A5-M1 link road and Woodside Link, which connect to the new M1 junction.
Jason Longhurst, Director of Regeneration and Business at Central Bedfordshire Council said, “The site has outline permission for a mixed-use development at North Houghton Regis, including warehousing, alongside the new junction 11a of the M1.
Lidl’s interest in coming to the Houghton Regis business park is great news for the local community. It demonstrates how our commitment to building roads and infrastructure can lead to local jobs.
The council helped fund both the Woodside Link and A5-M1 link roads, which opened last summer and connect the business parks to the new M1 junction. Since construction of the roads started, more than 50 new deals have been completed for industrial and distribution units across Dunstable, Houghton Regis and Leighton Buzzard, and the investment generated or planned for the area is already worth an estimated £2bn.
We look forward to bringing yet more companies and jobs to the area

What a local eyesore.
HFF dear Nick, and stay safe
Nick Weall club has replied to Amelia clubIt will become a refugee centre !
We are struggling in a small way at the moment. There has been a water leak outside somewhere near the water meter. So for the last 48 hours we have had no running water. Severn Trent water board has been out and given us 10 large bottles of drinking water. Meanwhile we've had to dig up a small area of the garden. They're supposed to be coming out again today ..... I can't wait to flush the loos. ;-))))

Nick Weall club has replied to gezginruh clubThe new motorway junction that was built to service this has been of benefit to our factory as junctions 11 and 11a give two ways to get onto the M1 within ten minutes of our location, whilst junctions 9, 10 & 12 are also options in times of accidents etc.
Thanks for your kind visit and have a good weekend.
Warm wishes
Nick
Hopefully we will get an update picture of the building from you sometime.
HFF Nick and wish you a good Bank Holiday weekend.
Regards, Rosa.
I very rarely visit our factory these days, but I will be taking a camera with me when I do :~)
Enjoy your long weekend
All the very best to you
Nick
HFF, Nick.
Nick Weall club has replied to Andrea Ertl clubNick Weall club has replied to Fred Fouarge clubA very nice picture, which I like very much!
Be interesting to see where the lorry drivers come from.. (As Rosa says)
Also worth noting that this is just the right distance from the channel ports to align with the drivers tacho breaks .. So we can watch for asylum seekers escape attempts too!
Great colours
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Nick Weall club has replied to Peter_Private_Box clubOver the years I've seen a few lorries on the hard shoulder near J11 with police cars all around and refugees pouring out of the trailers and trying to run off. I guess that they have friends or relatives in or around Luton. Of course Toddington Services is not far away for a safer decamp.
Thanks for your good wishes ~ Hanwe

Keep safe, Herb
5000 new houses are to be built as a part of this major development that covers a very large area
