Located in Sheffield, with immediate access to J34 of the M1 motorway, the site offers excellent connections to the entire country, with 90% of the UK population within a 4.5-hour drive. PLP Bessemer Park is a 4-minute drive to Meadowhall shopping centre and Meadowhall Interchange Rail Station, providing best in class amenity and transport access.

The scheme will achieve Carbon Net Zero (CNZ) status and, as with all PLP speculatively developed properties, will adhere to the UK Green Building Council’s Net Zero Buildings Framework. PLP’s carbon net zero strategy combines CNZ construction with CNZ ready design, to enable future occupiers to achieve CNZ operation by utilising built-in renewable energy features and procuring appropriate renewable energy supplies. This includes the use of solar photovoltaic panels, air-source heating and cooling, LED lighting and electric vehicle charging points.
