Public sector procurement authority SCAPE Scotland has appointed Balfour Beatty to deliver up to £750m of civil engineering works across the country.
Running for four years from 2023, with an option to be extended for a further two years until 2029, the appointment follows the success of SCAPE Scotland’s existing framework, which has commissioned more than 40 projects across Scotland. These include the North Bridge refurbishment in Edinburgh and the Stockingfield Bridge project in Glasgow.
The third-generation framework is aimed at empowering local authorities and public sector organisations to progress the delivery of sustainably designed major infrastructure projects - including roads, rail, flood and coastal, broadband and electric vehicle infrastructure - with no defined upper limit for project value.
