“The authority and Rolls-Royce have been working in partnership to secure this new road, which enables the wider campus ambition to move forward”
The new campus design is similar to those from the firm's sites in the US and Singapore and further solidifies Rolls-Royce's future in Derby after being chosen as the main production hub for Trent XWB engines back in December.
