Work at Sunderland鈥檚 Bridges shopping centre involves creation of a three-storey Primark
Land Securities, owner of Sunderland鈥檚 Bridges shopping centre, has appointed Morgan Sindall for a 拢15m extension.

Work on the site is scheduled to begin this month and finish in July 2012, creating around 150 jobs.
