New airport hotel and business park at Aberdeen Airport to create 2000 jobs
30.08.11
Up to 2,000 jobs could be created at a new business park and four star airport hotel next to Aberdeen Airport, the BBC reports. Plans for the £100m 54-acre construction led by Ribnort - called ABZ - have been unveiled, with the aim to have the business park's units ready for occupation from summer next year.
George Stevenson, founding director of Ribnort, said: ‘Attracting new and retaining existing business in the north east is vital to the economy. The site, which comprises the land between Dyce Drive, Aberdeen Airport and Wellheads Drive, is in an absolutely ideal position in terms of its location adjacent to the A96 and the future Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route. Securing a four-star hotel at ABZ will further boost the region's reputation as a tourism destination.’
Airport managing director Derek Provan added: ‘I am delighted that after a number of years in the planning, Ribnort and Aberdeen Airport have been able to deliver a robust development plan for this site. The land is earmarked for business park development in Aberdeen City Council's local development plan, and detailed planning permission is being dealt with.'
