Miller Construction has scooped four accolades at the Considerate Constructor Scheme's prestigious Annual National Awards.

The firm was presented with a gold award, as well as silver and two bronze awards at the ceremony in Plaisterers' Hall, London.

Considerate Constructors is a national initiative which aims to improve the image of the construction industry by encouraging best practice beyond statutory requirements, and only the very best performing sites are recognised annually at the awards.

Sites which sign up to the scheme are monitored against a Code of Considerate Practice which covers areas including consideration for the public, environmental impact, cleanliness, being a good neighbour, as well as being responsible, respectful, safe and accountable.


Brian McQuade, Joint Managing Director, Miller Construction, said: "We are delighted with the four awards, which are testament to the high standards Miller Construction is committed to upholding."

Miller Construction received a gold award for The Elements site in Livingston, a £130m shopping centre under construction for Land Securities, after demonstrating exceptional levels of consideration against the Code of Practice.

The silver award recognised the high standards at Forum 5 & 6, Solent Business Park, Southampton, where the company is building two offices and an amenity building under a £13m contract for The Prudential.

Meanwhile, bronze awards went to the site of the £14m Hagley Haybridge High School in Worcester, a new teaching facility for Worcester City Council; as well as the recently-completed Girling Way in Heathrow, an £8.8m warehouse development for AIP.
