The visitor centre from the approach.

A new visitor centre tied into the southern tower of Newport’s Grade I listed transporter bridge, built while the bridge itself was being restored.

The commercial problem is the interface: new work against a listed structure, with the restoration programme running at the same time. Civil works sit next to the heritage fabric rather than instead of it.

A project listed here is selected experience. It is not a claim to have led every commercial role on the job.
