Trammell Crow Company secures permission to deliver Heywood logistics scheme

Real estate developer Trammell Crow Company (TCC), has secured planning permission following a successful appeal for a 480,469 sq ft logistics scheme in Heywood.

TCC will deliver industrial and logistics space in two buildings, with two units (one at 51,623sq ft and the second, 47,468sq ft) in one building with the option to combine depending on occupier demand, and a third unit spanning 381,378 sq ft) in a separate building.

The site on Manchester Road is strategically positioned with direct access to Junction 19 of the M62, and is three miles east of the M60/M62/M66 intersection, providing access to the entire north west region.

Having submitted its application in October 2022, TCC secured planning permission for the scheme from the Planning Inspectorate following a successful planning appeal.

Russell Homes, which has outline consent for the 318-acre South Heywood masterplan nearby, had previously opposed Trammell Crow’s project, claiming the value of the 1,000 residential units within its masterplan would be impacted by the proposed scheme.

TCC will target BREEAM Excellent certification and an EPC A rating. The development will feature timber structures and air source heat pumps for the offices, 100% photovoltaic-ready roofing and zero-carbon warehouse frames, while also enabling significant biodiversity net gain.

Sophie Watkin, UK planning director at Trammell Crow Company, said: “Having worked closely with Rochdale Borough Council over the past couple of years, we are very pleased with this decision, which is a reflection on the perseverance and expertise of our team and advisors. We look forward to working with the council and other stakeholders to deliver a first-class sustainable scheme that creates new jobs and economic opportunities for the community.”

A general contractor is expected to be appointed this year, and TCC will complete the scheme in summer 2026.
