Poster Update

The results for the poster competition held at Westmoor Primary School are due in next week.  Watch out for the lucky six who will have their posters placed on the site hoardings!

April Showers

We've had more than our fair share of rain this week on Woodland Court.  However, this hasn't stopped CB precast completing the area of flooring on programme for Friday... well done lads !
 
Unfortunately the bricklayers have had a short week, which has put the next phase of beams into May.

Floors R Us ...!

Earlier this week we commenced laying floor beams on the Staincliffe Road elevation.  The area up to the lift shaft will be complete by Friday!

Any Suggestions ???

The team here at Woodland Court have recently installed a suggestions box on School Lane.  This is for local residents who have any queries or suggestions they may have about our site.
 
As an affiliated member of the Considerate Constructors Scheme, we have a duty to make sure we take the views and opinions of our neighbours very seriously, and to ensure we cause as little disruption as possible to the local community.
 
We look forward to hearing from you !

Substructure brickwork continues on Woodland Court in readiness for our pre-cast floor beams, due on 16th April.  Local supplier CB Precast will supply and install the floor, prior to our timber frame construction in early May.
 
Wates are committed to using local labour, with companies such as Progress, CCTV Monitoring and bricklaying contractor C & I Smith - all based locally and employing local staff.
It's been a quiet week on Woodland Court, with the most atrocious conditions on Wednesday - we had to close the site due to safety concerns for our operatives.  Staff stayed on in the office to make ready for a fresh start on Thursday.

In anticipation of a welcome Easter break, we're letting all our followers know that Woodland Court will be closed on Thursday, with a prompt return to work on Tuesday 10th April.  During that week, we're hoping to place our first floor beams along Staincliffe Road and complete the final retaining wall on site.

We would like to wish you all a happy Easter !
