Bath Quays £21 Million Regeneration Project with BAM

March 2, 2021 4:01 pm Published by

We are underway with our latest project with BAM Construct UK, helping with the construction of the Bath South Quays scheme on the bank of the River Avon, in the beautiful and historic city of Bath, Somerset. 

Bath South Quays is £21.5 million development that runs alongside the River Avon that is set to be completed in 2021. It is part of a wider regeneration scheme helping to boost the business district of Bath and which spans the north and south banks of the River Avon.

 

 

The scheme has been part-funded by the West of England Local Enterprise Partnership through the Local Growth Fund, administered by the West of England Combined Authority.

The site will consist of a new office building, No.1 Bath Quays, alongside a second phase (Bath Quays 2) and the refurbished Newark Works. 

A 60m long steel bridge has been installed over the River Avon for cyclist and pedestrians that will connect to a sister development, Bath Quays North, provide easy access into the city centre from the south of the river. 

 

 

The bridge was designed by Paris-based engineering and architectural consultancy Marc Mimram after winning an international design competition commissioned by the council in 2015 and securing the largest number of votes in a public poll.

No.1 Bath Quays, a 5-storey, concrete framed office block clad in Bath stone is the first new office block to be built in Bath for 25 years. It will provide 45,000ft2 of Grade A office space spanning over 5 open plan floors, along with storage for more than 100 bikes and secure parking. The accommodation has been designed to be flexible with the ability to subdivide floors in accordance with the occupier’s requirements

Bath’s UNESCO World Heritage status has given the development a number of challenges that had to be overcome. The Roman spa-town, famed for its beautiful Roman baths at the centre is fed by natural thermal springs that rise under pressure – groundworks could impact this natural system so minimising any risk of damage was paramount. Listed buildings, heritage structures along with working beside a river all added to a complex planning phase. 

 

 

We currently have a specialist CSCS certified cleaning team consisting of construction cleaners, windows cleaners and SSSTS supervisors on the ground at the site, assisting BAM with any construction cleaning requirements that arise. 

Our team can expect to carry out build cleans to the internals of each and every room and communal area of the buildings under construction. Later, this can be supplemented with additional cleans to ensure the work is finished to exceptional standards, as expected in such a project. Our works are always finished off with the final handover sparkle clean, ready for the customers to move into the buildings. 

Our specialisation in construction cleaning has meant we have built a comprehensive service, where we can take on almost any construction cleaning tasks, even when faced with the challenges. 

We have onboard, IPAF licence technicians who can operate the latest powered access platforms, which means we can access those difficult to get to places. 

Our cleaning team uses the most up-to-date working method and latest tool to achieve a perfect finish with improved health & safety performance. 

Working with BAM requires strict prerequisites in how we, as a company, operate. Our status as a Constructionline gold accredited cleaning company guarantees that our policies and systems in which we operate are amongst the highest of industry standards within the UK. This allows us to supply the leaders within the industry and work on some of the largest and most impressive construction projects nationwide.

This exciting new development will significantly improve not only the aesthetic of the area but also help to build a strong business district, which will improve the lives of many who work and live in the city. 

We have worked with BAM for quite some time, across many large projects, and we look forward to helping them make this new development at Bath Quays a huge success.
