Large Portfolio projects encompasses multi-disciplinary civil engineering, building and railway systems work. This ranges from bridge construction, earthworks and geotechnical operations to improvements to existing or new stations, signalling, telecoms and electrification projects.

"We are delighted to have been appointed to the North West & Central Framework," said James Corker, Operations Director in Skanska’s infrastructure business.
