Morgan Sindall wins £36m Glasgow Sighthill job

Glasgow City Council has picked Morgan Sindall to deliver infrastructure work for the vast Sighthill Transformational Regeneration Area .

The £36.5m contract will see construction works for roads, earthworks, utilities, drainage, landscaping and public realm begin in November with completion expected in early 2019.

Morgan Sindall was awarded the contract after a tender process in which 64 firms expressed an interest; eight supplied PQQs and five were invited to submit a tender.

The £250m scheme will see the 50ha site redeveloped to create a new neighbourhood with around 800 homes for sale and rent, a community school campus and new footbridge across the M8 to connect Sighthill with the city centre.
