Bam has formally signed on the dotted line for its largest ever contract by value, a £250m scheme to build a new arena in the shadow of Manchester City’s Etihad stadium.

Called Co-op Live, the 23,500-capacity venue is being built on a derelict plot, owned by City Football Group, the holding company of the Champions League finalists, on the approach to the Etihad stadium originally built by John Laing.
