Prestige development brings 3,500 jobs to Sunderland
Sunderland's Rainton Bridge has been chosen as the site for one of the largest job creation and regeneration projects ever undertaken in a former UK coalfield area.
Up to 3,500 jobs will be created at the prestigious business park, which is being developed by Sunderland City Council and international office and business park specialist, Akeler, by banking giant Northern Rock.
It has chosen the 55-acre park as the location for a new £60 million office complex, confirming Sunderland's growing reputation as a world-class centre for business.
The deal is a huge coup for the City of Sunderland and sees almost half of the 800,000 sq ft commercial scheme pre-let in advance of major construction work starting on site.
