Project Information
What They Said: “The redevelopment of UKHO’s Admiralty Way site will see the construction of a new environmentally friendly office to create a modern, collaborative working environment. As well as bringing cost efficiency, the new building will deliver up-to-date technology and working conditions to enable UKHO to sustain a long-term future as a data-centric organisation.”
John Humphrey
Chief Executive
Craig Allen, BAM Construction Director added:
“BAM are thrilled to be given the opportunity to work in collaboration with the UKHO team. We look forward to bringing their vision for future operations to life by delivering a building that will support its work in the digital age.”
Progress on the project will now continue through the design stages with the Design Team, Cost Consultants and Main Contractor before seeking Planning determination later this year. Costs associated with the new office will be met by the UKHO from business receipts as a self-funding agency.
The UKHO will continue to operate from its current buildings until moving into the new office which is planned for 2019. Existing buildings will then be demolished and the land at the front of the site sold for redevelopment.
