Wigan Council awarded a contract to Galliford Try Construction Limited for the design and construction of two Parklife Football Hubs at Laithwaite Park and William Foster Playing Fields.

The contract, valued at £7,672,369.86, was procured through a further competition under the North West Construction Hub (NWCH) Medium Value Construction Framework, Lot 6.

The scope includes a single-storey six-change pavilion with a multi-function club room, education room, bar, commercial kitchen, and ground floor plant room at Laithwaite Park, along with a new 256-space car park, associated services, external works, and a new access road from Scott Lane.

At William Foster, the project involves a single-storey four-change pavilion with a multi-function clubroom, education room, café, a new 160-space car park, associated services, external works, and a new access road from The Grove.

The contractor will appoint its own design team to take the current RIBA Stage 3+ design to Stage 6 (Handover and Close Out) under the JCT Design and Build Contract, 2016 Edition.
