Tideway picks three for commercial services framework
Arcadis, Gardiner & Theobald and Turner & Townsend have been picked on the four-year framework and will provide a range of commercial services as well as project and programme management resources on the scheme.
Arcadis has been working with Thames Water for the last four years throughout the procurement phase, and worked on the transfer of the project from Thames Water to Tideway in 2015.
Gardiner & Theobald has also worked on the tunnel programme since 2013.
Commenting on the deal, Tideway chief operating officer Mark Sneesby said: “We’re delighted to have Arcadis, Turner & Townsend and G&T on board.
“As we start main construction work on the Thames Tideway Tunnel, we are confident that having the knowledge and expertise of three of the most prominent consultancies will be a huge asset in our work to clean up London’s river.”
In December last year, Aecom, Mott McDonald and an Arup / Atkins JV were named as design partners for the major works packages on the super sewer, while in February three joint ventures were picked for a £2.3bn deal for the project’s construction contracts.
