Each firm has been working with South West Water as part of the company's H5O engineering delivery alliance since 2009.

Around 150 jobs are expected to be created during construction.

The new facility will replace the outdated centre, which was built in the 1950s and is reaching the end of its operational life.

Senior Project Manager Mike Court said: "We're delighted to officially welcome our partners PWN Technologies, Balfour Beatty, Interserve, Arcadis and Pell Frishmann on board for what promises to be a very exciting and globally significant project.

"The new treatment works will meet the needs of Plymouth's growing population and provide a secure, high-quality drinking water supply for the wider Plymouth area for generations to come."

Construction is scheduled to finish by December 2017, with a view to becoming operational in September 2018.
