The Wales division of Midas Construction has been awarded the contract to convert four buildings at Fitzalan Court on Cardiff鈥檚 Newport Road into student halls of residence.
Works include a two-storey roof extension designed by Holder Mathias Architects as well as a new courtyard area and the re-modelling of an existing basement car park to provide additional space for facilities and parking. Completion is expected in summer 2017
Quantity surveyor for the project is Chandler KBS and structural engineer is Shear Design.
Derek Quinn, executive director at Midas Construction鈥檚 Wales division, said: 鈥淭his is another significant project for the group in the city, following on from the 拢12m student accommodation project we are currently delivering in Cardiff鈥檚 Oxford Street.
The Fitzalan scheme is a joint venture between McLaren Group and Cardiff-based developers PMG. 聽Midas previously built the Twerton Mill student living site in Bath for McLaren.
