McPhillips has been awarded a £10 million contract by Hereford Council to construct the city’s new Transport Hub. The project is part of a broader strategy to improve travel and connectivity across the city, encouraging a shift away from car dependency and supporting more sustainable transport options.

The new Hub will feature upgraded bus stands and layovers, dedicated taxi and car parking, including both commuter and short-term spaces, as well as enhanced facilities for cyclists, such as covered cycle stands and lockers. Passengers will also benefit from improved indoor welfare amenities.

Designed to offer reliable connections between bus, rail, cycling and walking routes, the Hub aims to enhance accessibility and reduce congestion while improving air quality in the area around the station.

Andrew Dunham, contracts director at McPhillips, said: “Having worked on significant public realm and transport projects over the years for different local authorities, we know how transformative these spaces can be.

“We have a genuine commitment to improving our local communities and the team at McPhillips is looking forward to delivering a hub which will make moving around the city easier and more sustainable for everyone.”
