A large new logistics warehouse in Milton Keynes has been completed, though the identity of the business set to move in has yet to be revealed. The development, known as Logistics City, is located on Michigan Drive in Tongwell, close to the M1, and is one of the biggest new industrial buildings completed in the area in recent years.

The 125,000 sq ft facility has been built on a six-acre site acquired by Kier Property in 2024. The previous warehouse and office buildings were demolished to make way for the new development, which includes modern Grade A office accommodation, a green roof and dedicated outdoor break-out space for staff. Its location offers strong transport links, making it attractive to logistics and distribution firms.

Kier Property says the building has been designed with sustainability at its core. The warehouse is targeting an EPC A+ energy rating and net zero carbon operation, alongside a minimum BREEAM ‘Excellent’ standard, with scope to reach the highest ‘Outstanding’ rating in the future. These credentials reflect growing demand for environmentally responsible industrial space.

Speaking after completion, Kier’s head of industrial and logistics described the project as an important step for the company, highlighting its ability to deliver large-scale, high-quality developments. Kier Property continues to roll out its Trade City and Logistics City schemes across the UK, with sites already established or under way in locations including Hemel Hempstead, Bracknell, Manchester and St Albans. Despite strong interest, no announcement has yet been made about who will ultimately occupy the Milton Keynes site.
