Student Accommodation build contract awarded to Willmott Dixon
Congratulations to Willmot Dixon who have been appointed by Shropshire Council to convert one of Shrewsbury’s most prominent town centre buildings Mardol House into Student Accommodation for the new University Centre Shrewsbury which was established by The University of Chester and Shropshire Council.
The 3.4m contract gives a new lease of life to the 50 year old Mardol House, and will see studio apartments with kitchenettes and en-suite facilities added, along with an apartment for a university tutor.
The fast track project is due for completion in September 2015, just in time for the University Centre Shrewsbury’s first undergraduate students who arrive on Sunday 27 September 2015 and will be studying subjects from a choice of 13 undergraduate degree courses.
