West Midlands-based construction company McPhillips has won a £10 million local authority contract to deliver a new and improved bus station.

Hereford Council announced McPhillips as its official construction partner on the Hereford Transport Hub project, part of a wider scheme of transport and travel improvements around the city.

As well as new bus stands and layovers, taxi and car parking areas, including commuter and short-term parking, the Hub will provide indoor welfare facilities for passengers and covered cycle facilities and lockers to encourage commuter cycle parking.

The £10m Hub will enhance the area around the station while also encouraging a shift away from reliance on cars, providing an easy-to-use, reliable link to bus and rail, as well as cycling and walking in the city.

Andrew Dunham, McPhillips contracts director, said the hub project was a great investment in the future of the city.

“Having worked on significant public realm and transport projects over the years for different local authorities, we know how transformative these spaces can be.

“We have a genuine commitment to improving our local communities and the team at McPhillips is looking forward to delivering a hub which will make moving around the city easier and more sustainable for everyone.”

Cllr Philip Price, cabinet member for transport and infrastructure, said: “We are pleased to announce the appointment of McPhillips Wellington Ltd as the council’s official construction partner for the Transport Hub project.

“Once complete, the Hub will provide accessible, safe and green transport connections, boosting health and wellbeing, reducing congestion and improving air quality. We look forward to working with McPhillips Wellington Ltd to deliver a modern and truly outstanding Hub for Hereford.”

McPhillips, which employs more than 240 people at its Hortonwood headquarters, has delivered more than 140 projects as principal contractor with a value of £300million in the last five years.
