Project Description
An urban expansion project comprising 6,500 new homes of
mixed tenure; 40,000m² retail space; secondary school; 4 primary schools; a high quality public realm, and a range of
associated community and leisure facilities.
The project set new standards of urban design, and was characterised by its commitment to ecology and sustainability. A Site of Special
Scientific Interest (SSSI) was created, along with improved habitats for
a number of protected species.
The role of NSDC is to promote the project, secure all necessary planning consents, implement the design, procurement, construction
and maintenance of all enabling infrastructure and common facilities,
manage the site interface between developers, contractors, residents and visitors, and act as the public ‘face’ of the consortium. NSDC
appointed WYG in 2000 to manage the project on their behalf, providing a full range of services.
Services Provided
At a strategic level WYG manage the consortium including the administration of the Consortium Agreement, management of the
consortium finances, chairing of Board Meetings, negotiation of planning agreements, and liaison with the local public and media.
At a project level we provided a full PM, QS and CDM service on a wide range of construction packages of up to £18m in construction value.
The total project budget under WYG direct control is nearly £100m.
