| BAM Nuttall wins Heathrow tunnels contract Civil engineering contractor BAM Nuttall has been awarded a contract valued at more than €100 million (£85 million) by Heathrow Airport Ltd to undertake refurbishment work on the main and cargo access tunnels to the airport which are the key routes into the airport for public and freight vehicles. Keeping the tunnels open during the work is vital to avoid disruption to the UK's hub airport which means work to refurbish and improve the tunnel ventilation systems and upgrading the fire detection, suppression and alarm systems will take place over night and during pre planned lane closures. Following the successful delivery of the project to upgrade the north bound bore of the Blackwall Tunnel, BAM Nuttall will again be working in partnership with specialist mechanical and electrical contractor VVB to deliver this project. Work is due to commence later this month with a completion date of the end of February 2016. write your comments about the article :: © 2014 Construction News :: home page |
