Morgan Sindall has been awarded a £9 million contract by London Underground.
The project involves creating a system to cool the platform areas at Green Park Tube Station and will involve the installation of eight air handling units on the platforms.
The work is taking place on an ‘accelerated timescale’ in order to meet the Summer deadline, when extra numbers of passengers are expected to use the Underground network.
Jag Paddam, managing director of Infrastructure at Morgan Sindall, says:
“We are delighted to have been awarded this project. Morgan Sindall has previously worked on similar Cooling the Tube projects for London Underground and we will be applying this past experience to ensure this project is completed on time and for the benefit of the travelling public.”
Morgan Sindall said the design work is underway and the project is due for completion in Summer 2012.
