the Project.

McCoy Contractors delivered a comprehensive package of works that began with extensive earthworks across the site, preparing the ground for large‑scale construction and long‑term operational performance. This included 21,000m² of ground modification and lime stabilisation, providing a 30% CVR. This work enabled the creation of a stable, high‑strength platform for the facility.

The team then progressed into the main groundworks phase, which included a 1,000m³ concrete pour to form the basement gym at the heart of the development. The project was completed with external landscaping works that tied the new facility into its surroundings and provided a clean, durable finish to the wider site. The project has been undertaken on a 70 week construction programme.
