DEVELOPER Bardsley Construction has secured two new Merseyside contracts worth £7.3m.

The £70m turnover business based in Tameside, Manchester, is building the Belvidere Hostel, a supported family centre for Liverpool Mutual Homes, and a hostel for Liverpool Housing Trust.

Belvidere Hostel, a four-storey building in Dingle with 16 self-contained units and an administration area, has a contract value of £3.4m. Work started on site in January 2011 and is due for completion in April 2012.

The other hostel at Field Lane, Liverpool, has 42 flats and a contract value of £3.8m. Work on this project, which involves the demolition of an existing hostel, also started in January and is due for completion in January 2012.

Chairman Wayne Bardsley, said: “We’re delighted to be working with such blue chip clients on projects that further enhance our reputation and presence on Merseyside and indeed throughout the wider North West.

“Bardsley continues to benefit from its growing reputation for work for the public sector with an emphasis on partnerships with clients including local authorities, education bodies, housing associations and health authorities.”
