The rise followed 1.8 million square feet of new lab space delivered across the area over the past two years.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cHowever, geopolitical risks, economic uncertainty and rising construction costs are expected to slow development,\u201d said Scanlon. \u201cLess than 130,000 square feet has started on site so far in 2026, one of the lowest levels on record, reducing the UK construction pipeline to around 3 million square feet, down around 13% since the start of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nA further 1.4 million square feet is due by year-end, with over 40% still uncommitted. Vacancies are expected to rise further in 2026 before levelling off next year as completions slow.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe full analysis can be found <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.costar.com%2Farticle%2F1943091094%2Fuk-lab-space-demand-rises-to-a-record-high-driven-by-strong-prelet-activity%3F_gl%3D1*15k7k8*_up*MQ..*_ga*MzAxMjk2OTI5LjE3ODU4MzQ3NDI.*_ga_0VBY5KHBRL*czE3ODU4MzQ3NDEkbzEkZzAkdDE3ODU4MzQ3NDEkajYwJGwwJGgw*_ga_FZJZNHHEW2*czE3ODU4MzQ3NDEkbzEkZzAkdDE3ODU4MzQ3NDEkajYwJGwwJGgw*_ga_87MTQ4CRBW*czE3ODU4MzQ3NDEkbzEkZzAkdDE3ODU4MzQ3NDEkajYwJGwwJGgw&amp;esheet=54584042&amp;newsitemid=20260806333297&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=here&amp;index=2&amp;md5=d75834f6c4a098fb1fff26ada48ea812\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\nFor more information about the company and its products and services, please visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.costargroup.com&amp;esheet=54584042&amp;newsitemid=20260806333297&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.costargroup.com&amp;index=3&amp;md5=284cba3bf43c31c590337ba6792fe4f8\">www.costargroup.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">About CoStar Group<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nCoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP) is a global leader in commercial real estate information, analytics, online marketplaces, and 3D digital twin technology.
