Location

Located at the entry to Grangemouth Chemical Sciences area at the junction between Inchyra Road (B9143) and Wholeflats Road (A905), the Wholeflats site offers excellent access to the M9 motorway as well as strong local network connections via the B9143 (dual carriageway) and the A905.

Size

The site extends to 3.5 ha, however significant utility easements limit net developable area, making the site suitable for medium scale development across 2-3 plots.

Ownership

The site is owned by Falkirk Council.

Development/Planning Status

The site is designated in the Local Plan as a business and industry retention site and in the draft Local development Plan as an area for economic development.

Available Financial Assistance

The site is located in an area in which eligible projects may attract 15%-35% Regional Selective Assistance funding. Further information on eligibility of RSA funding support can be provided.

TIF Supported Enabling Works

The TIF project can provide funds to address enabling infrastructure associated with flood mitigation; road access; utility infrastructure and site preparation.

Local Network Infrastructure

Wholeflats is accessed directly from the A905, with access recently upgraded to modern adoptable standard in order to service the initial phase of development. Road access is excellent and no requirements for significant access enhancement are envisaged.

Access

Spitfire Way, the internal access road, will require extension to facilitate site servicing of business units, with workshop units accessed from the entrance on the eastern boundary.
