From Wiltshire to Cornwall...
From Wiltshire and Bristol, to Somerset and Dorset, down to Cornwall and Devon, there are of course many differences. These are some of the most attractive and visited parts of the UK but importantly for us, they are also areas where many industries thrive.
Kier has successfully operated in the region for decades and has helped generate millions of pounds of wider economic activity across the region. We do this by offering a breadth of expertise and capability, bringing together skills from across our business and employing local people to deliver an integrated offer to our valuable customers and boost the regional economy.
Our operational presence across the South West also means we can have meaningful impact on wider social issues through activities such as training and employment. As we continue to expand within the region so does our corporate responsibility footprint.
South West fast facts
Our team is helping to protecting the economy of the Isles of Scilly through an extension at St Mary’s Harbour, part of the £9m harbour redevelopment works on behalf of Cornwall Council.
At Bristol Airport we constructed a walkway linking the terminal with the western apron stands.
This included setting up a high-security interface to maintain airside/landside separation, saving precious time on the project delivery programme.
At the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station in Somerset, the Kier BAM 50/50 joint venture is responsible for a range of works.
This includes excavations of over 5.5 million cubic metres of material, large-scale earthworks, the development of complex terracing structures and the creation of an expansive road network.
We rebuilt and reconfigured Cheltenham racecourse.
Fourteen sectional completions and handovers (incorporating 18 separate projects) were programmed into the construction period, enabling the client to continue with uninterrupted sporting and corporate events.
We have built 18 new homes for open market sale at the Falmouth Golf Club development ‘Pennance Field’ on the outskirts of Falmouth, named the fourth best place in the country to live. Each home on the development benefited from an air source heat pump to help improve sustainability and reduce energy bills.
