According to the union "rm have now secured an additional 2 parcel hubs in addition to Warrington, essential to their parcel strategy"
Anyone know where these are located?

Some huge warehousing under construction immediately off J11A of the M1 at Luton.

I've heard that the midlands site has been chosen, any ideas where this is? I'm just interested to see how they are located in relation to each other.

Probably close to the very south of the M1 for logistical reasons .

It's going to be within 1/4 mile of NDC

Think that's for a massive Aldi/Lidl warehouse.

That'd be about 3 miles from prdc, would have to be significantly bigger to justify them moving such a short distance.
Makes sense logistically though or perhaps further up the M1.

Interesting, Radlett was rumoured several years ago as the southern hub.
Isn't the Midlands hub going to be in Atherstone?
