Parliament Street, Nottingham

Overview

Parliament Street originally had a bridge over the Great Central Railway lines south of Victoria Station. The Bridge had been forgotten since the building of the Victoria Centre in the nineteen seventies as it has not been visible. The ingress of rain and salted water from winter gritting had severely corroded and reduced the strength of the bridge.

A new reinforced concrete slab was incorporated into the existing structure, constructed in four phases to allow 2 way traffic flow through the works. 

We also upgraded the Victoria Centre's basement car park M&E equipment, including lighting, emergency sprinkler system, roller shutter doors, and air conditioning.

The works were completed 4 weeks inside the programme period and for 15% less than the tendered allowance.  Our Senior Agent was awarded the 2008 CECA Midlands Site Manager of the year for his management of the scheme.
