Galliford Try executive chairman Greg Fitzgerald said: "We are delighted to have secured this opportunity, which builds on the strong relationships already established with North Lanarkshire Council through our Hub South West schools projects. Morrison Construction continues to lead the way as contractor of choice for the public sector in Scotland and will continue to play a key part in our strategy to increase the size of our construction business."
