Clark Contracts has announced the successful completion of the fit out of a brand-new Justice Hub in Dundee for Scottish Courts and Tribunal Service.

The main contractor completed a variety of works including the refurbishment of the ground floor into office spaces, WC's and a new court room. The facility was designed on the objective of meeting the specific needs of court users who have experienced the impact of trauma in their lives, with a focus on providing a safe and secure environment to empower and enable the most vulnerable witnesses. The evidence suites have been fitted with the latest audio and digital technology and are subtly decorated in calming tones.
