The contractor replaces Bouygues on the scheme
Bristol City Council has rubber stamped plans to award Buckingham Group a pre-construction services deal on Bristol鈥檚 new 拢92m arena.
Buckingham replaces Bouygues, which walked away from the job in January this year after failing to agree a price for the 12,000-capacity arena.
- a decision now confirmed by the council鈥檚 cabinet.
A review into the cost of the scheme, which could result in the Populous-designed venue being redesigned, was also requested.
The council has set aside 拢123m to build the new arena which sits on council-owned land and has so far spent 拢9m on bringing the project forward.
