White Young Green provides design services for college

15 October, 2005

Design services for this £9 million development at Accrington & Rossendale College are being provided by White Young Green. It has been necessary to pay particular attention to the steeply sloping site, a phased construction programme and keeping the site fully operational. Regional director Anthony Fuller comments, ‘The team in Manchester has a wealth of experience in the education sector gained from working with project managers AA Project and architects DLA on a similar scheme for Bury College. We have been able to provide our client with value engineering taking into account the financial, geographical and logistical constraints of working on site that is still very much in use by the college and its students.’
