Additionally, the development included amenities such as playing fields and cycling routes that connected to the broader local town network.
In collaboration with our longstanding partners at Kier Construction, we managed various aspects of this exciting project, which encompassed civil works, including enabling works, demolition packages, groundworks, substructures, utilities, slabs, and external components. M&O also handled the external brickwork, cavity insulation, and internal block-work for all 56 properties. Upon the completion of the properties, M&O finalised the infrastructure work and carried out the necessary road and sewer installations.`

Project Management & Design Support
17 Story Residential Tower, Store St, Manchester
M&O played a pivotal role in project management, providing support to the developer in design and compiling feasibility studies for the planning submission of the proposed development.
We furnished the structural design team with guidelines for constructability, addressing various on-site challenges, including split levels, existing ground fill conditions, and access issues to the works. Our civil engineering expertise contributed to the designers adopting a cost-effective approach during the conceptual phases.
We maintained close collaboration with the developer from the early stages, with a particular focus on piling, substructure installation, and contracting practices to proactively mitigate the risk of cost overruns. This collaboration facilitated planning approval for activities necessitating specialised trade disciplines.
