Three Benefits for Three Rivers

Abbots Langley Data Centre is a proposed data centre located adjacent to the M25 motorway in Abbots Langley, Hertfordshire. The greenbelt site slopes down to the motorway and contains a scrapyard on part of the property.

The proposal would unlock £1 billion of foreign direct investment. It would bring hundreds of well-paid local jobs, a new country park and £12 million to use for the education and training of local people.

Abbots Langley Data Centre will help safeguard Britain’s economic future, and maintain our digital leadership among the world’s economies.
