Leeds City Council plans to bring a 90-acre North West Leeds Employment Hub site near Leeds Bradford Airport to market within 12 months, according to regeneration head Lee Arnell.
The council is positioning the site as a major business destination tied to the airport gateway, aiming to strengthen Leeds' jobs offer and ease a shortage of modern industrial space in north Leeds.
The hub is allocated in the Leeds Local Plan for general employment uses, with a masterplan expected to guide industrial and commercial development for sectors including advanced manufacturing, aviation, digital technology and logistics.
Future transport links are central to the scheme, with the council pointing to a potential parkway rail station, Thorpe Park station progress and wider mass transit upgrades as growth enablers.
The project sits within Leeds' broader infrastructure-led growth strategy, which also includes landscape and biodiversity improvements alongside new employment space.
