John Smith business park is a 60 acre greenfield development site strategically located in central Fife. Currently home to MGt, Kirkcaldy’s largest private sector employer, JSbp offers great potential for businesses looking to relocate or expand within Fife. Fife’s population is approximately 358,000 with employment levels currently at 166,000 people. Financial and business services are playing the key role driving growth and creating new jobs. Kirkcaldy itself is Fife’s biggest and fastest growing town with a population approaching 50,000 as well as an additional 130,000 within a 20 minute drive. JSbp has outline planning consent for approximately 300,000 sq ft of Class 4 (Business) development, incorporating an element of hotel/leisure accommodation. Land to the east has been allocated for residential development.
Location
Kirkcaldy is approximately 25 miles north of Edinburgh, across the Forth Road Bridge and along the A92 from Junction 2A of the M90. The Park itself lies immediately adjacent to the A92 and offers a high degree of prominence and excellent access to both Kirkcaldy and the rest of Scotland. Public transport in Kirkcaldy is quick and easy to use – frequent trains travel across the Forth Bridge from Edinburgh to the station in the town centre, and the bus network is extensive, radiating from the centrally located bus station, with regular services to JSbp and linking the town with all major centres in Scotland.
