Welcome
Welcome to the website for the emerging SEGRO Logistics Park East Midlands Gateway 2 proposal.
The draft proposal for the industrial and logistics development is defined as a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) and if approved, the proposal would deliver c.260 acres of warehouse employment space, the creation of c.4,000 new jobs and an overall investment of around £325 million into the local area.

What to expect from the planning process
SEGRO Logistics Park East Midlands Gateway 2 (EMG2) is classified as a project of national significance. The proposed development will be consented under the Planning Act 2008 and will be the subject of two interlinked applications. The first is a for a new Development Consent Order (DCO) for the logistics development, Community Park and significant improvements to the strategic road network. The second application is for a Material Change Order (MCO) to amend the existing DCO and permit an additional warehouse, increased crane heights and expansion of the existing bus terminal and management suite facilities on the first phase of the SEGRO Logistics Park East Midlands Gateway (EMG1), which is now fully occupied.
The applications will be determined by the Secretary of State, rather than the local authority. However, the local authority will play a key role as a consultee. The DCO and MCO process is governed by a specific timetable and process led by the Planning Inspectorate (PINS), which offers further guidance on their website.
Before submitting the applications, SEGRO consulted on its emerging proposals and engaged with the local community and a wide range of stakeholders to gather feedback on and to inform the refinement of the draft proposals for EMG2. A period of statutory consultation was held between 3 February 2025 and closed on 17 March 2025. An additional non-statutory consultation was held in July 2025 to provide an update on the changes that had been made to the emerging proposals before the final applications were submitted. A process timeline is shown below and once the applications are accepted by the Planning Inspectorate (PINS) for examination, local residents, consultees and interested parties will have further opportunities to provide feedback by submitting comments directly to PINS. You can also participate in the formal Examination process if you wish.
We will update this website with the latest documents and details to support both applications. Please check back regularly and you can also sign up for email updates directly via the PINS website at:
