Now in its 45th year and widely considered the ‘Oscars’ of the house-building industry, Pride in the Job celebrates site managers’ dedication to raising standards in house building, showcasing best practice and rewarding excellence. Judging is rigorous, with assessment across six key areas: consistency, attention to detail, leadership, interpretation of drawings and specifications, technical expertise and health and safety. Thousands of inspections, with meticulous scoring and detailed verifications, have taken place to determine the 450 winners from a field of circa 8,200 sites, representing the top 5% of UK site managers. Commenting on the awards, Steve Wood, CEO at NHBC said: “Congratulations to all the winners. They have demonstrated the dedication, passion and leadership skills necessary to deliver new homes to exacting construction quality standards. “Thousands of outstanding site managers have made their mark on the industry in the 45 years Pride in the Job has been running. This continued focus on excellence is vital to support the Government’s 1.5 million new homes target and to ensure that all housing is built to the quality owners and occupiers should expect.” Pride in the Job has five categories: small, medium and large builders, plus multi-storey for projects up to seven storeys and high-rise for projects more than seven storeys.

road maintenance - Wrekin

Wrekin Responds to UK Infrastructure Strategy: “Potholes are More than a Surface Issue”

NEW UK INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGY UNDERLINES NEED FOR LONG-TERM THINKING ON ROAD MAINTENANCE  THE GOVERNMENT’S 10-Year Infrastructure Strategy, published this week, sets out a long-term vision to build resilient, efficient and high-performing infrastructure, which includes a commitment to invest £24 billion in the local road network by 2030. But while these long-term funding pledges are welcome, potholes remain one of the most visible and frustrating signs of the current strain on roads. Paul Thompson, technical specification manager at civil engineering solutions provider Wrekin Products, has responded to the strategy by stressing the urgent need to tackle the critical underlying issue using preventative solutions instead of short-term fixes.  Paul said: “Despite the promise of long-term investment in infrastructure, the reality on the roads tells a different story. The backlog of carriageway repairs in England and Wales remains severe, with recent estimates putting the figure at around £15.6 billion. What’s more, data continues to show that over half of the local road network has less than 15 years’ structural life remaining. The critical underlying issue here, which is highly and unhelpfully politicised, is the vast quantity of potholes.  “Road users want to see immediate action; meanwhile local authorities want to be seen to be fixing the issue. However, funding needs to be used wisely to prevent the formation of potholes in the first instance so that the longevity of our road network is increased and the need for costly, constant repairs is reduced.   “The mindset of those responsible for road maintenance needs to shift to one which focusses on whole life cost. Our view is backed by the Local Government Association (LGA), which represents councils and said the government should focus on preventative measures rather than “reactively” fixing potholes.  “Working with local authorities for many years, we’re fully aware of the power that correctly installed and high-quality materials can have on the likelihood of potholes forming. Issues typically arise when weaknesses exist in the road surface, potentially due to surfacing joints, remedial works, or the use of poor-quality materials. Addressing these weaknesses stops the cycle before it can begin. Every 16 seconds a pothole is filled, which is simply not sustainable. Surface failures and failing ironwork go hand in hand, so we need this connection to be more widely recognised.   “Though the initial cost of measures like this is higher than patchwork repairs, soon enough the expenses from further repairs, disruption to roads while carrying them out, and damage to vehicles from untreated potholes makes the potential savings for local authorities and their residents alike astronomical.  “It was recently revealed that under new government plans there will be greater monitoring of local authority performance on road maintenance, with councils expected to publish annual reports in order to maintain access to millions of pounds in funding. The Department for Transport has also contacted local highway authorities to outline what this reporting should include, covering both reactive and preventative work. Importantly, it reinforces that temporary quick fixes should be avoided wherever possible and that a focus on prevention delivers better long-term value.”  “We see this as a positive step forward but urge those responsible for road maintenance to see potholes as more than just a surface issue. Within the framework of a 10-year infrastructure vision, long-term, below-the-surface solutions must become the standard rather than the exception.”  For more information on solutions to the UK’s pothole problem, read Wrekin Products’ industry report Potholes – More Than a Surface Issue here: wrek.in/potholes  To learn more about Wrekin Products, visit www.wrekinproducts.com.  Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals

Brabazon City District in Bristol Chosen by Waitrose for its First New Flagship Store in Seven Years

Waitrose has confirmed that its first new flagship full-line supermarket in seven years will be built at Brabazon in North Bristol.  The 30,000 sq ft store at Brabazon will create around 150 new jobs and is expected to open in 2027. It will be located approximately 500m from a new train station which is under construction and which will benefit from higher frequency services as part of the Government’s £800m investment in the region’s transport network, announced earlier this month.  The multi-million pound deal agreed with YTL Developments is the first major commercial partnership announced at Brabazon, which is already established as one of Bristol’s most desirable residential neighbourhoods. The arrival of Waitrose follows the YTL UK Group’s commitment to invest £4bn over the next five years and marks the next stage in the transformation of Brabazon, demonstrating its attractiveness not only to new homebuyers, but now also for commercial investment. James Bailey, Executive Director for Waitrose, said: “We are moving up a gear in store investment as we open in new locations and modernise our existing estate to bring the quality, service and value that customers love about Waitrose closer to more people. “Brabazon is one of the most exciting new city districts in the UK, driving the growth of one of the UK’s most vibrant and successful regional economies. Partnering with YTL Developments at Brabazon underlines our ambition and the opportunity we believe we have to grow our reach.” The new Waitrose supermarket will be located in a prime position on the A38 Gloucester Road at the gateway to Brabazon. It will occupy the ground floor of a seven storey office building, designed by AHR architects and be served by an adjacent multi-storey car park with space for over 1,500 vehicles. The office accommodation – located between GKN’s Global Technology Centre and the Bristol campus of Airbus UK – is set out over floorplates of 18,800 sq ft and is targeting a BREEAM Outstanding rating. Brabazon: The most exciting new urban district in the South West Brabazon is the new town for North Bristol, being built on the historic former Filton Airfield, where every UK Concorde was built. YTL Developments is now transforming this historic landmark, located at the heart of Bristol’s world-leading aerospace, engineering and technology business cluster, into a new urban community. Hundreds of award-winning new homes at Brabazon are already completed and occupied. Hundreds more are currently under construction, as well as over 1,500 beds of purpose-built student accommodation and a new community hub in a historic listed aircraft hangar. Designed to live up to the legacy of this former Airfield’s pioneering past, the approved plans for Brabazon include thousands of new homes, creative workplaces to support up to 30,000 jobs, as well as the largest new urban public park in the South West for over 50 years and a supersonic new 20,000-capacity Arena for Bristol. Brabazon will also be home to the city’s newest train station which is expected to open in September 2026. Seb Loyn, Planning & Development Director at YTL Developments said: “The arrival of Waitrose in 2027 is not only great news for the thriving community of new residents at Brabazon: It shows that this new city district is now firmly established as one of the most attractive destinations for both homebuyers and commercial investment in the South West. “In the past year, YTL Developments has announced a multi-billion pound investment package, seen work start on a new train station, and welcomed hundreds of new residents to the community.  Welcoming Waitrose – one of the best-loved retailers in the UK – to Brabazon as our first commercial partnership is a signal of our intent to create a new town for North Bristol that works for people and for businesses, now and for years to come.” Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals

Beal Submits Plans for Over 400 New Homes as Contribution to Hull’s Housing Targets

Family-owned housebuilder Beal Homes has submitted plans for a £120m development which would bring much-needed new homes to a popular community in Hull.  Beal has submitted an application for full planning approval for more than 400 new homes on a 38-acre site in Sutton-on-Hull.  The proposed development would provide a significant contribution to Hull City Council’s required quota of new homes.  The Government has set a national target to build 1.5 million new homes during the current Parliament to meet growing housing demand. Responding to the Government’s targets, Hull City Council has adopted its own Housing Growth Strategy for 2025-2031, which sets out plans to add almost 6,000 new homes to the city’s housing stock from 2025-31.  If approved, the Beal development will bring up to 418 new, high-quality homes to a site which is allocated for residential development in Hull’s Local Plan. House types will include two-bedroom starter homes, three-bedroom homes for growing families, and four-bedroom detached properties, reflecting local demand and catering for a wide range of homebuyers. The plans include areas of public open space, including the creation of a green corridor along the southern boundary of the site, to create a scenic walking route and act as a natural buffer between the development and adjacent housing.  A thoughtfully-designed attenuation pond will also provide a practical drainage function, while enhancing the landscape as an attractive natural focal point.  Beal’s plans include the retention of existing hedgerows and trees, as well as the planting of additional trees to deliver a net gain in biodiversity of at least 10 per cent.  To promote accessibility, and ease pressure on the local road network, the plans include the creation of two access points to the development off Danby Close and East Carr Road, with Beal also proposing to facilitate the extension of the existing local bus route to enhance public transport in the area.  Beal Land Director, Chris Murphy, said: “This proposed development has been designed to create a seamless blend between urban, city living and the natural surroundings on a site allocated for housing in the Hull Local Plan. “Everything from the mix of house types, to the positioning of green spaces and public footpaths, aims to create a well-balanced development which creates a sense of community and connection, and integrates naturally into the existing residential area.” Sutton-on-Hull is a close-knit village-style community within the city boundary, located three miles north of Hull city centre. The proposed development would bring much needed new, modern homes to the area, which has seen little development for the past 50 years.  Beal Chief Executive, Richard Beal, said: “There is a growing demand for high-quality new homes in Hull, and the Sutton area, in particular, has seen very little new housing in recent years. “This application sets out our proposals to bring more than 400 much-needed homes to the city, at a time when the council is under increasing pressure to achieve higher housing targets. “Our plans include a wide range of house types, including starter homes to enable the next generation of Hull residents to take their first step onto the housing ladder.”  East Yorkshire-based Beal is the region’s leading independent housebuilder, having delivered scores of prestigious developments across Hull, East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire for almost 60 years. The business is at the forefront of regeneration across the region, having delivered, or currently delivering, many of the area’s most significant residential developments. Beal has won a host of awards in recognition of the quality of its homes and developments and was recently awarded the top five-star rating from the Home Builders Federation (HBF) for the fifth consecutive year in recognition of its exemplary customer service.

Weyside Urban Village

Winvic Commences Weyside Urban Village Highways Works for Guildford Borough Council

Winvic Construction Ltd, a leading main contractor that specialises in the design and delivery of private and public sector construction and civil engineering projects has been appointed by Guildford Borough Council to deliver highways works to Weyside Urban Village, a new community that will comprise 1,550 new and affordable homes, along with green and play spaces, an employment space, commercial centre and sustainable transport hub. The first set of highways works began in early May 2025, with the remaining nine phases being delivered over an 18-month period, covering a variety of highways improvements. These include the reconfiguration of a roundabout, road widening schemes, residential parking bays, signalisation works, and the creation of a new toucan crossing. Dedicated bus lanes are also being introduced to improve service reliability and performance, encouraging the use of public transport, while a new network of cycle and footway facilities is being developed to encourage active travel. The scheme also features upgrades to the on and off ramps connecting the A3 to the A320, improving overall connectivity and reducing congestion across the area. The first set of highways works Winvic is undertaking is the construction of a new toucan crossing on Woking Road, replacing the existing uncontrolled crossing between Old Woking Road and Fir Tree Road. With works due to complete in August 2025, the upgraded crossing will help improve safety, allowing pedestrians and cyclists to cross at the same time. Winvic has been on site at Weyside since February 2024, delivering the on-site infrastructure works for the future residential development. Works included the preparation of plateaus for housing construction, and by the project’s completion in November 2025, approximately 34,000m³ of earthworks remediation will have been carried out to achieve the necessary ground levels. Diversionary drainage works began in October 2024, followed by the installation of around 4,500 metres of new foul, storm, and private drainage systems, including attenuation crates, and managing urban drainage using Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS). Winvic is also constructing 670 metres of internal roads and 1,300 metres of footpaths, complete with tactile crossing points. Throughout the works, Winvic will be actively engaging with the local community to deliver meaningful social value as part of its commitment to creating positive project legacies. This will include local employment, work experience and training opportunities, supporting STEM education by working with local schools and colleges through the Surrey Careers Hub, and volunteering initiatives. Rob Cook, Managing Director for Civils & Infrastructure at Winvic, commented: “We are proud to be working with Guildford Borough Council on the Weyside Urban Village project, which represents a significant investment in Guildford’s future that delivers vital infrastructure to unlock much-needed housing and promotes sustainable development and public transport solutions. Our involvement in both the on-site infrastructure and off-site highways works demonstrates Winvic’s capability to deliver complex, multi-phase, civil engineering projects with sustainability and social impact at the heart, that create long-lasting benefits for residents and the wider community.” Cllr Tom Hunt, Lead Councillor for Regeneration, said: “As we move forward with our plans to deliver the vital infrastructure needed to support the Weyside Urban Village regeneration, we’re pleased to have appointed Winvic Construction. Our strategic regeneration project will create new homes, jobs and green spaces, delivering on our commitment to make Guildford a greener, fairer, thriving place to live work and do business.” Keep up to date with the works at Weyside Urban Village here: Transport | Weyside Urban Village For more information on Winvic, the company’s latest project news and job vacancies please visit www.winvic.co.uk.

Pagabo Shares Thoughts on 10 Year Infrastructure Strategy

Karen Carter, director of national delivery at procurement specialist Pagabo, said: “One of the biggest talking points for the built environment of late has been the need for certainty and confidence – and the publication of the 10-year UK Infrastructure Strategy today certainly does a lot to support both of these. “Labour’s promise to ‘Get Britain Building’ is now underpinned by this strategy and billions of funding covering new schemes, maintenance and upgrades, decarbonisation and improving energy and transport networks just to name a few. Combined with the interactive portal launching in July, this should provide the industry with the levels of confidence and certainty it’s been craving. Perhaps even more importantly, these announcements should foster certainty and confidence in the private sector too, enabling more private sector partnerships and funding to accelerate delivery. “There’s also a clear goal to create the maximum social value possible with a place-based approach and better social infrastructure – delivering not just homes and buildings, but bringing together travel networks, education, healthcare, homes, public realm and cultural offerings places that truly work for their communities. “We welcome the news there will be further consultation on procurement reforms to ‘better support social value and SMEs’ – showing that government understands just how powerful procurement can be in unlocking social value. The right processes and early engagement are key – and with renewed certainty and confidence, the built environment can bring together the partnerships needed to make this strategy a reality.” To learn more about Pagabo, visit www.pagabo.co.uk About Pagabo:   Pagabo is the UK’s leading procurement organisation, providing a suite of frameworks that enable public sector organisations to procure the goods and services they need.

Wrekin Recognised by BSI for 30 Years of Quality Excellence

CIVIL engineering solutions provider Wrekin Products has received a special award by The British Standards Institution (BSI) to recognise 30 years of continuous ISO 9001 certification. In 1995, Wrekin achieved the internationally recognised standard for quality management systems, covering its design, stockholding and supply of ductile and grey cast iron manhole covers and gully gratings, geosynthetics, steel access covers and related civil engineering items.  The recent award acknowledges Wrekin’s long-standing commitment to quality, excellence and consistency, as well as maintaining a mutually supportive relationship with BSI for three decades.  Barry Turner, castings technical manager at Wrekin, said: “Having worked at Wrekin since we first obtained our ISO 9001 certification in the mid 90s, I’ve seen how valuable it continues to be across the business. This award from BSI reflects the enduring strength of our internal systems, our culture of accountability and our collaborative approach with customers and partners. “Our internal systems across all departments became more robust when we decided to adopt the standard, and we have worked with our supply chain ever since to share our expertise so that they can improve their processes too.” During the six-month period in 1995 when Wrekin aligned its quality management system with ISO 9001, a new quality manual was established to list all the procedures used across the business and, in doing so, several important improvements were made at the time, including revision of procedures covering; customer feedback review, contract review and a commitment to undertake regular, scheduled internal and external audits.  Not only has Wrekin credited the standard for its ability to improve overall operational quality, but it has also recognised the positive impact on transparency across the business and provided clear processes which help all employees in their introduction and adoption.  Barry continued: “This milestone highlights our dedication to; continuous improvement, customer satisfaction and industry betterment, which have all helped cement our position as a trusted name in the civil engineering sector.” To learn more about Wrekin, visit www.wrekinproducts.com  Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
