Ravenscraig project managers named

GLOBAL construction and management consultancy Turner and Townsend has been appointed project managers for the second phase of the ambitious regeneration of Ravenscraig.

Following OJEU procedures, Ravenscraig Ltd has appointed Turner and Townsend to project manage the creation of a new town centre on the site of the former Ravenscraig steelworks in Lanarkshire.

The company will start work immediately and will be involved in the process to select further members of the consultancy team tasked with the planning and delivery of the second phase of development.

This will represent a further investment of some £600 million to create a new town centre consisting of around 1 million sq ft of retail, leisure, restaurant and community facilities in a modern, attractive centre. 1500 housing units and 500,000 sq ft of commercial space will also be created.

It will be served by a new railway station, a bus interchange, and have substantial car parking with dual carriageway access from both the M8 and M74.
