Skanska has appointed Yorkon to manufacture and fit out a new 136-bed ward building at Walsall Manor Hospital. The £5m contract forms part of the advance works package for the £170m redevelopment of the hospital to be completed under the Private Finance Initiative, replacing outdated buildings with state-of-the-art facilities for patient care.
Yorkon has also been awarded a £2.6m ProCure21 contract for Interserve, for the off-site construction of a 42-bed emergency assessment unit at the University Hospital of North Tees in Stockton (pictured).
Also scheduled for completion in October, the 1,710m2 single-storey extension to the existing department will expand the number of assessment beds on the Stockton site.
The third contract is to provide an MRI suite at Princess Elizabeth Hospital near St Peter Port in Guernsey. The project for the Avenue Building Company is Yorkon’s third for the contractor.
