Appointment for Worcester leisure centre
A monitoring surveyor has been appointed for a new David Lloyd health & fitness centre in Worcester.
Manchester-based Avid Property Consultants (Avid) has been appointed to the role for the project by Standard Life Investments.
Standard Life, acting on behalf of a segregated client, has instructed Avid to oversee the construction of the £6.8m building, located just off the M5 adjacent to the new Worcester Warriors Rugby Club Six Ways stadium.
The development monitoring team at Avid will be responsible for technical assessment and overseeing the construction progress over the ten-month term of the project.
The building is set to cover 60,000 sq ft including indoor and outdoor tennis courts and swimming pools together with changing facilities and bar areas.
Work began on in December 2011 and completion is expected in September 2012.
Jeremy Powell, partner at Avid, said: "We are working with Standard Life Investments on several projects across different sectors throughout the country and the David Lloyd contract in Worcester is positive testament to our performance and experience in the leisure arena.
"The David Lloyd facility is close to proposed exciting new developments and will add value and attraction to the edge-of-town area for Standard Life Investments and its client."
