ISG Wins £2m NWCH Framework Contract

Construction News Image
ISG has won a £2 million contract to create a special educational needs (SEN) facility in Manchester.

The deal was awarded under the renewed North West Construction Hub (NWCH) Medium Value Framework.

The firm will refurbish a former local authority care home in Longsight to create SEN facilities for Rodney House School.

The scheme will allow the school to consolidate its specialist facilities on a single site, as well as providing the expansion space needed for the school to accommodate extra pupils.

Work is underway on the enabling phase of the project, including carrying out roofing repairs, demolition and strip out works.

Features of the project include creating new classrooms, therapy areas, staff and peripatetic health visitors' offices, toilet facilities, an assembly hall and a dining area.

External works include modifications to the existing car park to create additional capacity and pick up/drop off bays for mini bus school transport, including a mix of hard and soft landscaping.

Danny Murray, ISG's Northern regional MD, said: "The NWCH Framework has proved instrumental over the past four years in bringing key community projects to site quickly and cost effectively.

"The renewed framework continues this forward thinking ethos and we are delighted to be working to deliver purpose-built facilities for Rodney House School, which will enable the school to provide support and education to a greater number of children in the East Manchester area."
