Under construction

United Kingdom · 1 project · Last reported

Summary

The Environment Agency's compliance assessment report YP3329SB/0605385, issued 17 August 2026, records a 'Site inspection - still under construction' on 11 August 2026 at LHR11/12, Chandos Road (permit EPR/YP3329SB, holder VDC LHR11 Limited), carried out under construction-site (CDM) control with Vantage's permitting and operations managers. The officer notes that one building ('LHR 10' in the report) is near complete and that the second separate building is yet to be started, and inspected the fuel system, stacks, SCR system and the engines installed at ground level. This dated first-hand regulator observation supports under-construction status as of 11 August 2026 for the two-building data-centre campus; it does not establish completion or operation of either building, and the second building's works had not begun. evidence

Not reported

The register publishes no positional accuracy and does not say which part of the site it marks; the two-building campus covers about 2 ha around the point.

Geometry evidence

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
