Sisk has been handed a 拢96m contract to deliver the first phase of a commercial development at Circle Square, a new city centre neighbourhood in Manchester.

Sisk is due to complete all the works on the two contracts, which at peak will employ a workforce of 1,300 people, during 2021.

With total development value of 拢750m Circle Square will be delivered over three phases with over two thirds of the scheme completed by 2020.

There will also be a multi-storey car park and two hotels while the 250,000sq ft of public realm will bring green space to the city.
