Awarded to Kier Group through the NEC-based collaborative delivery framework, the project was completed on time and on budget. NEC’s collaborative approach supported early risk management, fair dealing, and high team morale – all key to its smooth and successful delivery. This project won the Best Practice Large-Scale Mitigation, Compensation and Enhancement Award and the Tony Bradshaw Best Practice Award in the 2024 Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management Awards. It was also Highly Commended for the Environmental Project of the Year in the 2024 British Construction Industry Awards and won the 2024 Institution of Civil Engineers South West Community Award.
