Building partnership secures contract on £100 million Brunswick development

Housebuilder and construction group Galliford Try have secured the contract to work on the £100 million regeneration scheme in Brunswick.

Manchester City Council have appointed a partnership team called S4B which includes Galliford Try, Equitax and Contour Homes to provide services to the project.

The regeneration programme will transform the Brunswick area of East Manchester, providing 522 new homes as well as new community facilities, including an Extra Care centre and retail units.

Repairs and maintenance contractor Mears will refurbish a further 654 homes and provide ongoing facilities management services under the project.

Galliford Try chief executive Greg Fitzgerald stated: “We are very pleased to reach agreement with Manchester City Council, our consortium partners and other project stakeholders to secure what will be an important regeneration project for Greater Manchester.

“S4B is already well advanced in its planning for the project, and we look forward to formal commencement of works early in 2014.”
