Access 18 takes its name from junction 18 of the M5, which with the M49 at junction 18a lies within a mile to the south. Originally brought forward by St Modwen and now run as Indurent Park Access 18, it is a 212-acre development between Avonmouth Way and Kings Weston Lane where more than a million square feet of warehousing has been completed. Unlike the older estates around the docks, much of the stock here is recent, including units with BREEAM Excellent ratings, EV charging and solar panels, and sizes run from under 30,000 to more than 200,000 square feet. That spread suits everything from regional parcel and trade operators to single-site distribution centres. Avonmouth Docks are around two miles away, and a First Bus service runs along Kings Weston Lane beside the site, helping shift workers from Lawrence Weston and Shirehampton.
New units letting and fitting out at Access 18 bring bursts of hiring as operators open, while parcel and e-commerce occupiers add extra volume through Black Friday and Christmas. Every one of those swings opens gaps that must be filled quickly.
