Kier, Carillion and Bam in search of Paradise

20 Feb 14 Kier, Carillion and Bam Construction have been shortlisted to tender for the first stage of the Paradise Circus regeneration project in the centre of Birmingham.

An outline planning application for a £450m development of up to 10 buildings in 17 acres of land in the city centre between Centenary Square and Chamberlain Square was approved late last year. (See previous report here.)

The transformation of Paradise Circus is being undertaken through a joint venture company established in September 2013 between Birmingham City Council and British Telecom Pension Scheme (BTPS), managed by Hermes Real Estate Investment Management Ltd (HREIML).

Developer Argent will manage the design and delivery of the site works on behalf of the joint venture company, as well as being the development manager for BTPS for the commercial buildings.

The client team also includes Drivers Jonas Deloitte, Glenn Howells Architects, Peter Brett Associates, Arup and Faithful & Gould.

The aim is to start construction in the autumn.
