Heathlands is situated at the gateway to City Fields, an emerging new neighbourhood to the east of Wakefield town centre. The 375 acre urban extension consists of 2,500 homes which have mostly been built alongside the newly built Wakefield Eastern Relief Road (WERR). Situated at the southern end of the WERR, Heathlands benefits from significant prominence and traffic flow at the Doncaster Road/WERR Junction. The traffic count on Doncaster road is excellent with 29,000 vehicles passing the subject site daily. All vehicles have the ability to access the site.
Planning consent has recently been secured for a prominent new roadside retail development situated at the gateway to City Fields, a new neighbourhood to the east of Wakefield town centre. With 29,000 vehicles passing the site on a daily basis, along with a new housing development of 500 homes adjacent to the site, this is a perfect location for a roadside retail development. Planning consent has recently been secured for Plot 1 which consists of a Drive Thru and two inline units. 23.5 Degrees Limited (T/A Starbucks) operate the drive thru on Plot 2, and have been trading successfully for over two years.
