Job Description

A new roundabout and access road to service a major 500 unit housing scheme with associated community amenities and commercial units.

Scope of Works:

As the principal contractor, we were awarded the initial contract to construct the large new 278 roundabout and access off the existing A264.

Considerable earthworks cut and fill was required in challenging soil conditions as the area was previously used as an inert material tip. An on-site lab was set up to conduct the geo-technical testing and our experience in this field has lead to successful delivery and acceptance from West Sussex County Council. The project also includes a new bridge, prefabricated portal sections used to save programme, installation of a large 2.10 m diameter attenuation pipe together with new services and drainage.

We were very pleased to be involved in this project which utilised most of our engineering expertise and provided an excellent opportunity to promote our all-around ability.
