Rolls-Royce has announced plans to update and modernize its
aerospace site in Derby, England, to create a “campus” for future usage.
The firm, which originally moved to the city in 1906, said
some of its buildings in Sinfin, England, are no longer fit for proper use,
making them part of the modernization plans. It also wants to re-route Victory
Road to create one unified campus with the repurposed campus plans.
A consultation period has begun and plans for the road are
expected to be submitted by March. Work on the campus is scheduled to begin in
2017.
“We have been based in the city since 1906 and some of these
buildings on our main Derby site are many years old and no longer fit for
purpose,” said a Rolls-Royce spokeswoman. “We need to modernize our facilities
to help us continue to be competitive and continue to meet the needs of our
customers.”
Details for the proposed campus have yet to be finalized,
but Rolls-Royce estimates the plan could take more than a decade to complete.
Once completed, the campus will provide new jobs, educational classes and, in
the end, better vehicles.
