Ben Littman, development director at Aviva Investors, said: "This proposal has been designed to provide an attractive and environmentally friendly place to work, regenerating a brownfield site which has experienced more than a decade of disuse and creating regional employment opportunities.
"Being in close proximity to the community, existing businesses and strong transport links, we believe the site offers a great development opportunity and one that strengthens our portfolio of assets while also improving the local area."
