Firms will provide architectural, civil and structural, building and landscape services on Manchester Waste Disposal Authority PFI

Engineering consultancy Scott Wilson has joined forces with Costain to provide multi-disciplinary services for the Greater Manchester Waste Disposal Authority PFI project.


The value of the contract is expected to be worth over £10m across four years, and includes architectural, civil and structural, building and landscape services.

The development, announced last December, is a John Laing and Viridor joint venture and is Europe’s largest waste management deal.

It includes waste collection and processing facilities across 28 sites within Greater Manchester. The project is due for completion in January 2012.
