Ashwood Business Park
Rainton Construction was appointed Principal Contractor under the NEC4 Form of Contract to undertake 278 works to help expand Ashwood Business Park. The enabling works included access improvements, service supplies, earthworks, and landscaping to support new developments on Plots 5 and 6.
MGL Earthworks carried out bulk earthworks. Surfacing was undertaken by our in-house team, part of Rainton Construction and material was provided by Tynedale Roadstone.
Scope of works:
- Bulk earthworks, fencing and landscaping
- Forming three new entrances into new commercial developments, one of which was a new petrol station
- The construction of a new footpath and junctions
- Diverting existing services to the plots
- Applying an anti-slip layer to the tarmacadam on the existing roundabout
Coordinating road closures and traffic management required meticulous preparation and planning, a testament to our commitment to operational excellence. We ensured effective communication and adopted a collaborative approach to coordinating and managing all service diversions relating to BT, NWL, Northern Powergrid, and Northern Gas Networks.
The 62-acre business park is at the heart of one of the North East’s strongest manufacturing clusters. We were delighted to partner with Advance Northumberland to facilitate growth and investment.
