Construction News Image
Turner and Townsend (T&T) has been appointed to act as technical advisor for the Dutch BNG Bank on two building projects in the Netherlands.

Working closely with the bank, T&T will operate on a public-private partnership (PPP) project for a new town hall for the Municipal Council of Westland.

The financing structure of the project will support the build and maintenance of the town hall over a 25-year period, including monitoring performance over the duration of the project.

The development is to consist of two buildings, covering approximately 6,000m2 each, and house services including a civic centre and archives. It is due to be completed in 2017.

In addition, the consultancy will deliver a 'comprehensive financial risk assessment' for a project to deliver student accommodation at the Delft University of Technology.

The project consists of a two-phase 36,000m2 development and will initially involve the redevelopment of existing buildings into student apartments and a supermarket, bar and restaurant.

In addition, a coffee corner and medical centre will be built.

A second phase of works involves the development of 565 high-rise student apartments.

Niels Donkervoort, Consultant for T&T said: "Turner & Townsend is honoured to be supporting the first municipal PPP town hall project in the country and to be providing in-depth, independent technical advice and insight for a development on the largest and oldest Dutch public technical university."

Ferry Pankras, Specialist Infrastructure/PPP from for BNG Bank, added: "Turner & Townsend has a clear picture of what a financier needs to know about the technical aspects of building, road or other public infrastructural work, including the associated maintenance and facility management."
