Responsible for the design and construction of the new retirement village, Balfour Beatty will lead the completion of 255 one and two bed apartments, alongside communal facilities including a health club, swimming pool, restaurant and a multi-purpose village hall with surrounding green spaces and parking.
To support the delivery of its sustainability strategy 'Building New Futures', Balfour Beatty will deploy safe and sustainable outcomes throughout the project lifecycle including the offsite manufacture of the 180 apartment balconies, reducing the working at height risk as well as improving overall project efficiency.
