Civil engineers take pole position at Silverstone Park

CIVIL engineering firm O’Brien Contractors has won a design and build contract at MEPC’s Silverstone Park development.

The Leamington Spa-based firm has been chosen by principal contractor Readie Construction to install roads, sewers and services.

The work is part of an expansion of the technology business park which already includes eight of the 11 Formula 1 constructor teams and many supply chain companies that serve the motorsport industry.

MEPC, the developer behind Silverstone Park, wants the site to accommodate 200 businesses and 8,000 workers in the next 10 years.

Peter O’Brien, managing director of O’Brien Contractors, said: “We are delighted to welcome Readie Construction to our portfolio of high profile clients. We are very much looking forward to forging a strong and long-term relationship with them.”

Established in 1958, O’Brien Contractors is a second generation, family-run business that supplies civil engineering, design and build and groundworks services.
