PROJECT OVERVIEW

Peugeot Works is a collection of brand-new homes constructed by our long-standing clients Taylor Wimpey. JLES were awarded the project on a consult and construct basis working as; Main Contractor, Managing Agent & Technical Consultant.

The highways & sewers on this project were built over a period of 10 years by various groundworks contractors. When Taylor Wimpey appointed JLES, the development had been subject to a lot of general wear & tear, and these aspects required extensive remedial works carrying out before all roads and footways could be final surfaced.

‍

THE SCHEME INVOLVED

• Five phases of remedial and final surfacing works.

• Street lighting restorative works.

• Sewer cross-connections.

• All sewer works and network concluded and adopted immediately.

• Legal works & planning amendments.

• JLES legal team implemented short form Section 38 agreements.

• Installation of block paved focal squares.

• Associated tree planting throughout the entire scheme.

‍

KEY FEATURES

• Lump sum, fixed cost contract to secure S104/185 sewer adoption.

• Lump sum, fixed cost contract to secure highways sign-off on a ‘phase by phase’ basis.

• Works invoiced upon Local Authorities written acceptance.

• Resident liaison and customer care package.

CHALLENGES

Due to the length of the build programme, the early phases of this development had been subjected to a decade of wear and tear which resulted in large areas of the footways and road being re-constructed in entirety.

The Section 38 Agreements had not been executed and significant inconsistencies existed between the designs and the as-constructed infrastructure.
