Erdgard Developments has received approval for the Central Point project in Walsall (near Birmingham) and announces the immediate start of construction. The project is located on Willenhall Road and encompasses a total of 8,650 m², distributed across six units ranging in size from 546 m² to 2,440 m². These units will be built to BREEAM Very Good and EPC A standards.
Currently, site clearance work is underway so that the MCS Group can begin construction in May. Completion of the units is scheduled for February 2027, allowing future tenants to move in from that date.
Gareth Williams, Director at Erdgard, commented on the market situation in the region: “There is a shortage of high-quality new properties in the Walsall area and in the Black Country overall. Central Point will provide much-needed Grade A space. Our commitment to speculative developments demonstrates confidence in this location and market. We look forward to initial discussions with potential tenants.”
