VINCI Construction UK has successfully reached a significant milestone in the construction of the new bus facility in Stoke-on-Trent city centre, with the completion of the steel frame comprising 240 tonnes of complex curved steelwork.
VINCI Construction UK is the principal contractor designing and building the landmark bus station which forms the first phase of the Realis Estate’s £350million regional shopping centre, City Sentral.
Council leader, Councillor Mohammed Pervez said: "Work on the construction of the state of the art new city centre bus station is well underway and will be completed by the end of the year and opened early next year. It is wonderful to see the steelwork in place, this is a landmark development to be proud of."
