Joint developers Land Securities and the Crown Estate appointed Laing O’Rourke as main contractor for the £440m Westgate Oxford shopping centre scheme, they in turn appointed Lee Marley Brickwork to complete all the brick and blockwork on the contract.

Laing O’Rourke’s 30 month contract is focused on the construction of the shell and core of the three-storey retail centre, together with a 1,000 space underground car park and 61 new residential properties. Lee Marley Brickwork have once again decided to utilise Safestand Access Systems on this contract as their preferred low level access system.

The project, which will sustain 1,000 construction jobs, will also involve extensive remodeling of the existing Westgate shopping centre.

£3 Billion Redevelopment of Chelsea Barracks, London.

This site in the City of Westminster was originally owned by the British Army and was bought in 2008 by Project Blue Ltd which is the flagship London development arm of Qatari Diar, a subsidiary of the Quatar Investment Authority . The development won local-government approval in 2011 to develop almost 450 homes, stores, a health centre and leisure facilities on the 13 acre site which is due for completion in 2024. Buyers of some the homes sold are reported to be paying £4500 per square foot which makes these properties some of the most expensive in London.

Lesterose Builders have been selected as the preferred masonry contractor for Mace who have won the first three phases of the project. Lesterose Builders have the task of building both townhouses and apartments using both brick and stone and have selected the SafeStand Access Systems to carry out some of the works.

SafeStand® Access Systems are Stepping Up.

As we all know, the construction industry is constantly looking at ways to improve all aspects of health and safety in relation to work at height.

More and more main contractors are promoting the use of staircases instead of ladders to access all working platforms where possible.

SafeStand® have over the last number of years provided two sizes of staircase for use with the SafeStand® 1200 System.

Due to the increased volumes of staircases being hired by our customers, SafeStand® Ltd are now able to offer further discounts in the weekly hire rates for this element of our system.

Please contact us on 0208 795 3579 for information on these reductions.
