Exeter Science Park is a business park on the outskirts of the city Exeter in the United Kingdom for companies specialising in science and technology. It is a {{convert|26|ha|acre}} site next to junction 29 of the M5 motorway.[1] The park is linked to the University of Exeter Innovation Centre, which provides accommodation for knowledge-intensive business start-ups.[2] Exeter University was stimulated to develop the park by the desire to turn ideas generated at the university into products and services that could be marketed.[3] It is managed by Peninsula Innovations, a subsidiary of Exeter University which also runs the Innovation Centre.

Construction

The Exeter Science Park Centre was built by the construction firm Kier Group and cost £8m to construct; it was opened in June 2015. It was commissioned by the Exeter Science Park Company, a partnership between Devon County Council, the University of Exeter, the Exeter City Council and the East Devon District Council. The first phase of the project is a three-storey building of {{convert|30000|ft2|abbr=on}} which includes laboratories, offices and meeting rooms as well as public areas and a café. A further phase of {{convert|20000|ft2|abbr=on}} is planned, and when fully developed, the science park will comprise a million square feet of accommodation and employ in the region of 3,000 people.[4] Three further buildings on the site are planned to be delivered by 2018, offering space for start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises.[3]

Occupants

Services commerce company Blur Group became the first commercial business to move to the park in November 2013.[5][6]

The Met Office took delivery of an IT hall and neighbouring office building at the Science Park in late 2016. The IT hall houses a new supercomputer, the Met Office's third.[7]

{{asof|2017|10}}, the Science Park has over 16 other tenants.[8]

Redhayes Bridge

The Redhayes pedestrian and cycle bridge over the M5 evolved from a study looking at green infrastructure in Exeter and East Devon that led to a successful bid for £5.5 million to the Community Infrastructure Fund. The bridge links Blackhorse Lane to Hollow Lane, beside the park. It was opened on 20 July 2011 by Transport Minister Norman Baker.[9]

The bridge won a British Construction Industry Award in 2011.[10]
