Originally contracted to complete unit 4, this developed into completing 3nr plots. Our client wished to retain us as the groundworks contractor throughout.
Works involved the supply and installation of 100m of 2m and 230m of 3m precast retaining walls to suit level differences, the installation of new access road formation and kerbs, trenching for existing services to extend for future provision of Unit 11 and self-binding footpaths linking the jobs which included foundations for a 120m pedestrian bridge. Core works included the foundations, drainage, services, kerbs, service yards and paving.
Initially undertaking the enabling works including the main access spine road, services, drainage, headwalls and Tarmac. Hannon Brothers were awarded the main works which consisted of the construction of 4nr new units over 2 sites.
Creation of a new unit built over previous cooling tower foundations and RC Culvert taking water from the adjacent River Trent. The new plot is now adjacent to a busy road and rail freight terminal.
Creation of 6nr new units and associated access roads/ car parks on an old landfill tip that previously housed the old Imperial Tabacco factory.
One of the first fully EV future-proofed projects we undertook. The job required careful planning to maintain full use of a pedestrian and cycle path through the project.
