Construction company reels in contracts worth £14m
CLEGG Construction has landed two contracts in Yorkshire worth more than £14m.
They include an £8m contract at Solly Street Sheffield for listed student accommodation provider Empiric which owns and operates student accommodation nationwide.
The scheme involves the design and construction of 107 student rooms in four separate blocks and is due for completion summer of next year ready for the 2017 student intake.
Clegg has already delivered more than 1200 student accommodation units in Sheffield over the past seven years in four separate projects with an aggregated construction value of £44m. The company is also currently working on a £3.5m scheme for the University of Sheffield to provide an extension to its Casting Technology Institute, which will create the largest ceramic shell mould facility in Europe when completed.
Clegg is also appointed to deliver a £6.3m headquarters building at Calder Park, Wakefield for OE Electrics, which designs and manufacturers power and data distribution units across commercial sectors including office, education, leisure and healthcare.
This includes fast USB charging as well as providing support to major stock exchanges around the world in order to keep them working in the case of power interruptions. The 65,000 sq ft building includes offices, research and development, advanced manufacturing and warehousing facilities and is scheduled to be complete early in 2017.
Business development manager John Dixon said: “These latest appointments reflect our growing profile in the area and the diverse sectors in which we operate. It is also encouraging to see increased client confidence in the value and calibre of projects that we can deliver and we are confident of having further new contracts to announce in the near future.”
Clegg’s Leeds office was established in 2012 and has been involved with a number of Leeds city centre contracts including the £4m refurbishment of 21 Queen Street for Formal Investments and the £5m refurbishment of Minerva House.
