North Midland JV To Deliver £100m Severn Trent Water Project
North Midland Construction (NMC) has won a new contract worth over £100 million to deliver a new water treatment plant for Severn Trent Water.
In a joint venture (JV) with Barhale, the two companies will deliver the Birmingham Resilience Project. The scheme involves building a new 25km water pipeline from the River Severn at Lickhill to Frankley.
The new route will help provide an alternative source of water while essential maintenance work is carried out to the historic Elan Valley Aqueduct.
Previously, a partnership between Interserve and Kier were awarded the contract to deliver the project. However, the JV eventually walked away from the deal.
NMC and Barhale will now commence works on the three-year project in the third quarter of 2017.
John Homer, Chief Executive of North Midland, said: "This is a fantastic flagship project to be awarded with one of our key customers and is a testament to the specialist capabilities that our group have developed."
