Business Park
The Tiverton Business Park (TBP) formerly known as the Tiverton Industrial park, at the intersection of Route 24 and Fish Road offers the opportunity to generate jobs and diversify the tax base in town. Development of the Business Park is supported in the recently adopted Tiverton Comprehensive Plan. The Longplex Sports and Family Complex is located here, having opened in late 2019. Another tenant in the park is the gas fired energy plant. Recently, a new self-storage facility has acquired a parcel and is in the design and permitting phase. The Town has received other inquiries from local businesses wishing to relocate to the park and inquiries from businesses in the region expressing a desire to move their operations to Tiverton.
