Two major awards scooped at London's NCE Tunnelling Awards
What a truly remarkable way to mark the end to our 40 year celebrations!
Following a rigorous judging process, we were chosen as winners of two major awards were at the prestigious New Civil Engineer Tunnelling Festival Awards. The first award was Tunnelling Specialist Supplier of the Year – an exceptional result recognising our industry wide performance.
The second major win was in partnership with Al Hassanain for Tunnelling Project of the Year under $100m – a very complex project delivered by our exceptional Joint Venture Team in Kuwait.
The judges praised our entry - "A well evidenced submission demonstrating exceptional delivery on complex tunnelling projects whilst also investing in early careers through graduate and apprenticeship programmes, evidence of carbon and pushing the boundaries in pipe Jacking."
NCE editor Claire Smith said:

We are using innovative solutions to improve the carbon efficiency of our work, reduce safety risks and boost wellbeing and putting new technology into action."
“Our winners this year have set the bar high for the industry and demonstrate the skill and commitment of those working on the projects. The range and breadth of the projects and initiatives also showcase to society the critical role tunnelling plays in building resilient infrastructure that drives economic growth.”
