Chief Executive of support services and construction company Carillion, John McDonough was joined on site by client Dudley Infracare LIFT Chief Executive John Coyne, to check on two key regeneration schemes in Dudley worth more than £55million. Carillion Regional Building Division is working on the town’s new health and social care centre, while Carillion Civil Engineering Division is constructing the Sustainable Access Network. The two schemes are worth in total over £55 million.
The £26 million health and social care centre and the £28.6 million road scheme both started in April. Carillion’s two divisions are working closely together to ensure disruption to the town is kept to a minimum during construction. The two Carillion business units have also committed to the Signpost to Success charter aimed at ensuring employment and training opportunities are focused on local people.

John McDonough, Chief Executive, Carillion said:
“It’s good to see work progressing so well and Carillion playing a key role in the regeneration of the Brierley Hill through these two major schemes. We have a long term relationship with Dudley Council and have an interest in DIL Ltd, hopefully we will continue to bring our skills and expertise to bear in Brierley Hill and the borough in the future.
“I’m pleased that both divisions have signed up to the ‘Signpost to Success’ charter. The charter means we will work with local partners, including the Brierley Hill Regeneration Partnership, to ensure employment and training opportunities are focused on local people. This will ensure there are the skilled people for the future and is part of our commitment to the communities in which we operate to take actions today that help make tomorrow a better place.”

John Coyne, Chief Executive Dudley Infracare LIFT, said:
“It was good to give John McDonough a briefing on the LIFT scheme and show him the major earthworks and land enabling, funded through AWM, which are currently being undertaken. The two schemes are being built at the same time and are in close proximity, but due to excellent cooperation between Carillion’s two divisions, both projects are on schedule and disruption to shoppers, visitors and motorists is being minimised.
