Work is due to be completed in September 2010. The second contract, valued at A$8 million and due for completion in February 2010, is for the office tower at Media City, a A$2 billion development at Salford, Lancashire which has been planned as a new home for the BBC, media-based universities and other media organisations.

Our experience and track record in completing specialist healthcare, education and other infrastructure projects place us in a strong position to continue to win work flowing from government economic stimulus packages.’
