| Interserve awarded projects in Designed for Life: Building for Wales Interserve, the services, maintenance and building group, has been awarded a series of projects in Welsh Health Estates' Designed for Life: Building for Wales framework programme. The aggregate value of the work is over £200 million. Interserve's consortium, Interserve Health Wales, will undertake design, healthcare planning, cost consultancy, services installation, CDM (construction, design and management) co-ordination, professional services consultancy and construction. The largest project, accounting for just over half the total, is Newport Local General Hospital for Gwent Healthcare NHS Trust. Interserve will develop the Full Business Case, including rationalisation of healthcare solutions and buildings, and will design and build the new hospital on a brownfield site. Development of the business case will commence in September 2007, with construction work expected to start early in 2009 and to complete by the end of 2012. The other projects awarded are: the reconfiguration of mental health services within the Swansea area; a strategic programme for mental health facilities at Llandudno Hospital, Cardiff; an adult mental health unit at Wrexham Maelor Hospital; and a new breast-care facility at Prince Phillip Hospital, Llanelli. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
