Miller Construction has been appointed main contractor on a 拢102m PFI project for Avon and Somerset Constabulary.
The deal, reached between the force and the Blue Light Partnership 鈥� an investment joint venture between Bilfinger Berger Project Investments and Miller 鈥� has now reached financial close.
It will see the construction of a Somerset operations base for the force at Express Park in Bridgwater; a police station with custody facilities at Patchway; a custody and crime-investigation centre at Keynsham; and a firearms training centre at Black Rock Quarry, Portishead.
Miller Construction executive director Chris Webster said the win further demonstrated the firm鈥檚 鈥渋ntegrated approach鈥� of providing both investment and construction services.
鈥淭he current financial market has meant that financial close has been challenging, however, by working innovatively with our client, our partners and our funders鈥�, solutions have been provided to ensure a successful close,鈥� he said.
鈥淲e are now focussing on the delivery of these schemes that will make a positive impact on how police services will be delivered across the area.鈥�
