PROJECT UPDATE: Work begins outside Workington Leisure Centre

Great to see work progressing on our project outside Workington Leisure Centre to create a new events and activity space. Thanks to Thomas Armstrong Construction Ltd. for their work so far.

The funding for the project has come via ‘accelerated funding’ from the Government’s Towns Fund initiative. We have a bid in to the main fund for Workington for a range of regeneration projects which could see an investment of around £25m in the town.

IN THE NEWS: Thomas Armstrong Support PMS Fabrication in new HIP Car Park, Barrow in Furness

The UK wide lockdown brought works to HIP car park at Barrow-in-Furness to a halt, deemed as non-essential for manufacturing and construction.

PMS worked with main contractors, Thomas Armstrong Construction Ltd. to get our teams back on site as soon as was safely possible once restrictions eased, continuing with the manufacture and erection of 550 tonnes of structural steel, now complete.

The construction project on the Farm Street site sits on the historical Vickers shipbuilders yard, and is now home to a 2-storey car park; servicing BAE Systems, who are responsible and unique in the design and building of the UK's next generation of nuclear submarines.
