The Cardiff-based company has secured the contract, worth in excess of £6million, with ISG and will also be working closely with Rightacres, the developer of Central Square, to ensure that the project continues to meet the high standards that are required for the multi-layered development.

The Interchange is an innovative and modern build with a mixed use set of environments. In addition to housing the capital’s new state-of-the-art bus and coach station, the development will also provide dynamic office and residential accommodation in a key city centre location.

“We are thrilled to have secured another major contract to work on the Central Square development,” says Colin Shorney, managing director at Dudley’s. “Having already been involved with all of the other buildings at the site since 2016, we are delighted to contribute again to such a prominent development for the city. We are proud to be involved.” For more: www.dudleys.uk.com
