Colas praised by SITA

Mon, 12 Dec 2011

Colas' Construction Projects team have received praise from SITA for their 'design and build' work at the Hanworth recycling facility, Greater London.

SITA Construction Project Manager, Kevin Emery, said of Colas: "As construction work at the Hanworth recycling facility has come to an end this week, I wanted to take this opportunity to express my feelings as to how the project has been managed and carried out.

Colas' Construction Projects team have done a fantastic job delivering this site. They have clearly been involved in measures to save time and money to SITA - which is always welcome. The design of the site was developed to suit the situation once works had begun, and as a client I felt fully up to date and involved in the process.

The manor with which difficult aspects of the project, such as contamination works, were dealt with meant that there was no delay to the delivery date - in fact, the site has been completed ahead of schedule.

There was never any confrontation or disagreements and every issue was approached in a proactive manner. The team on site were also fantastic. On some sites there can be a divide between client and workforce. But the operations team there have really done Colas proud."

This praise once again serves as an excellent example of Colas' 'We Go Further' work ethic in practice - understanding clients' needs and working to provide innovative solutions.
