Mercedes-Benz has submitted plans to build a new car dealership on a former hospital site in Dartford, Kent.
The German manufacturer wants to construct a new showroom and workshop on the 260-acre Bridge industrial site in Dartford, which will include an MOT facility, according to the submission to council planners made in conjunction with Prologis UK.
The brownfield land was previously used by the Joyce Green Hospital and Littlebrook Lakes.
If accepted, the Mercedes dealership will cover four acres and is intended to become a ‘landmark’ structure. It also has an agreement to leave a grassland area for local wildlife.
