An industrial park (also known as industrial estate, trading estate) is an area zoned and planned for the purpose of industrial development. A more “lightweight” version is the business park or office park, which has offices and light industry, rather than heavy industry.
Industrial parks are usually located outside the main residential area of a city and normally provided with good transportation access, including road and rail. Industrial parks are usually located close to transport facilities, especially where more than one transport modes coincide: highways, railroads, airports, and ports.
