The modular scheme will provide 120 homes in Worksop

It will include one apartment block with around 30 homes and 95 bungalows consisting of mostly two and three-bedroom homes.

Faithful & Gould, which was appointed to the scheme via direct award through Pagabo鈥檚 professional services framework, said the modular approach would enable the scheme to be built 鈥渜uicker, more cost effectively, and crucially, at a consistent and high quality鈥.

The consultant will also act as the scheme鈥檚 principal designer and has appointed a design team of SMEs based in nearby Nottingham including lead architect Lungfish Architects, which is part of Scape Group, and consultants Dice Consultancy and BEC Consultancy.

Construction is expected to start in spring next year with completion slated for spring 2022.

The scheme is located about 4km from Laing O鈥橰ourke鈥檚 拢150m Explore Industrial Park, one of the largest offsite manufacturing facilities in Europe.
