Firm to design shopping centre extension for developer Intu
Bam Construction has been appointed as main contractor on a 拢100m Watford shopping centre scheme.
The scheme by developer Intu includes joining the Watford shopping centre with the neighbouring Charter Place shopping centre.
The 拢100m scheme will create a 1.4 million sq ft shopping complex with retail, dining and leisure facilities.
Bam will provide designs for the extension; demolish the old precinct; refurbish the car park and build a canopy roof over a public square.
Rebecca Ryman, regional director of Intu, said the scheme would 鈥渢ransform the town鈥� and 鈥渃onsiderably boosting its position in the UK retail rankings, placing it firmly in the top 20鈥�.
Adam Harding, construction director in BAM Construction鈥檚 south east division, said: 鈥淭he plans for Intu Watford are very exciting and BAM鈥檚 work on the extension section will create a townscape in keeping with the heritage of the area. In the process, we will be bringing 500 construction jobs which will be more good news for the town.鈥�
