Contractor lands £3.8m council contract
Warwickshire County Council has appointed Willmott Dixon Interiors to deliver the £3.8m refurbishment of its storage facilities in Warwick.
The office fit-out and refurbishment specialist contractor has started work on the 50,000 sq ft warehouse facility at Hawkes Point on the Heathcote Industrial Estate.
The warehouse, which has been used as a storage facility by Warwickshire County Council, will be divided into individual storage space to enable occupation by several council departments, including fleet maintenance, library services, archaeology, music, facilities services, rights of way, transport operations and catering services.
Willmott Dixon Interiors will also make external alterations to the building, including the remodelling and expansion of the existing car park, with part of the yard adapted to accommodate bus-parking bays.
Designed by architects, Pick Everard, the project is expected to complete by the end of January 2020.
Phil Crowther, operations director at Willmott Dixon Interiors, said: “We are delighted to have been chosen by Warwickshire County Council to deliver the refurbishment and remodelling of its storage facility in Warwick. The appointment further demonstrates the strength of our reputation in creating fantastic spaces able to meet the aspirations of both public and private sector organisations seeking high quality accommodation within the region. Through our close connection to Willmott Dixon’s construction arm, we are in a unique position to provide a fully one-stop service for our customers.”
