LSH Auto UK, which operates nine Mercedes-Benz and Smart dealerships within the Manchester and Birmingham areas, required a new car showroom facility together with a high-tech body and paint repair centre. They selected our team to provide a full suite of geo-environmental services to help them secure planning permission for a brownfield site in Stockport to be developed into a purpose-built car dealership.
Previously an industrial site, the land had been derelict for many years. Our services encompassed a desk study, ground investigations, and controlled waters and human health risk assessments. We also provided advice during the demolition phase including decommissioning of groundwater abstraction boreholes, remediation design, and elements of supervision of the appointed groundworks contractor.
We liaised with the Environment Agency and Stockport Council on behalf of LSH Auto UK to establish the scope of investigations, monitoring, and remedial measures required. Our assessments helped LSH Auto UK deal with legacy contamination issues relating to past fuel spillages and residual asbestos contamination risks from previous phases of demolition.
The 10.5-acre (4.2-hectare) site can hold 140 vehicles and includes 32 workshop bays. The three-storey facility serves as the benchmark to support the LSH Auto UK electric vehicle strategy. The new showroom is also the largest Mercedes-Benz showroom in Europe and the first in the UK to offer a new bistro and dedicated event facility.
