Exciting times for south Wales! A major £15m investment is set to transform four key port locations, fueling growth and innovation. Associated British Ports (ABP) is gearing up to make Cardiff and Newport the hotspot for open storage in the UK. By taking over 40 acres in these vibrant cities, ABP is not just about ports anymore; they’re redefining the landscape as a commercial landlord and strategic landowner.
In Cardiff, keep your eyes on Longships Road and Queens Road South in Cardiff Bay. Over in Newport, West Way Road and Atlantic Terminal at Middle Quay are ready for a new look. These sites will soon be the go-to for businesses eager to expand their storage capabilities.
Helen Thomas, ABP’s head of property, proudly shared: “We’re unlocking potential not just for our customers, but for south Wales and the entire UK supply chain. This investment is more than just a commitment; it’s about setting a new benchmark for flexibility and growth.”
With the first sites, like Queens Road South and Atlantic Terminal, slated to be ready by summer 2026, the future looks bright for industrial and logistics sectors. Keep an eye out, as south Wales is set to become an even bigger player on the UK’s logistical map!
