Marshall Errock Construction Ltd collaboration with Robertson began quite a few years ago at THE DePuy Synthes Project in Leeds, a multi-phase development;
 
Sustainable design at the centre
 
he project involved strict noise and operational restrictions due to the tight nature of the site which remained fully operational throughout.
 
Regular communication meetings with the client enabled careful programming of the timing of work and deliveries.
 
Sustainable design was a key aspect of the campus redevelopment from the outset.
 
To ensure that the project minimised its impact on the community and the environment, we sourced 90% of materials from local suppliers within a 30-mile radius of Leeds.
 
Another key goal of the campus design was to reduce landfill as far as possible by introducing dry mix recycling in all areas to reduce waste.
 
The Project attained BREEAM Excellent certification and in June 2015, DePuy Synthes celebrated the grand opening of the new campus, which now brings together many of the company’s local, regional and global business operations and support functions.
 
Following the successful delivery of this project, Marshall Errock Construction Ltd were again engaged to deliver an Aldi in Preston for Robertson’s, and the partnership continued in Aberdeen, before again being appointed as the preferred specialists Masonry Brick and Blockwork Contractor for Robertson’s multi-phase £23.9M development;
 
The project featured as a “game-changer” in it’s unique approach,
 
Through creating a development with 700 homes, 350 of which are affordable housing, they are focused on the existing community as well as attracting new people to the area in what is seen to be sustainable regeneration of the area.
 
They say that by building high quality homes designed to be environmentally, economically and socially sustainable, they can deliver what people are increasingly looking for in a home.
 
All of our developments are embedded in existing communities and if you are investing and building in an area over multiple phases and many years, a healthy, working relationship with local stakeholders is vital.
 
A local resident said: “They are bringing back to life a community that was once thriving before the shops were knocked down at Pennywell.
 
But with the regeneration work it feels like it is all coming back.
 
Hopefully we will see the return of proper community shops.
 
Folk that I speak to think it is great development and just what this community needed.
 
Kate Wimpress, director at NE Arts, has said that the partnership has allowed community actors to control their own destiny.
 
The council has worked in partnership with the developers to meet community needs. Councillor Kate Campbell, Housing, Homelessness and Fair Work Convener, said: “Pennywell is one of Scotland’s largest housing-led regeneration projects – delivering much needed affordable homes alongside investment in the wider community. A blueprint for our approach to council housebuilding across the city.
