Kier has landed the latest £100m contract on Severn Trent Water’s Birmingham Resilience Project.
The contractor confirmed in a trading update today that it has won “a new 50/50 joint venture infrastructure contract with Severn Trent on the Birmingham Resilience Project worth £100m.”
The project is part of Severn Trent’s AMP6 investment and worth a total of £300m.
Barhale is working on the first main package including a new 25km pipeline which Severn Trent has described as one of “the biggest engineering challenges” it has ever taken on.
Most of Birmingham’s water has flowed down the Elan Valley Aqueduct (EVA) for over a century from reservoirs in the Welsh hills.
The aqueduct needs maintenance to keep it in service, which means draining it for extended periods.
The Birmingham Resilience Project will provide an alternative source of water during those maintenance periods and will be used for up to 50 days every other year.
