Torsion Care Mount Oswald, Durham
Dudleys Consulting Engineers has secured four further contracts with Torsion Projects (on behalf of Torsion Care) to provide structural and civil engineering support for new care homes in Durham, Chesterfield, Bradford and Worksop.
The four instructions follow the successful delivery of new care home and retirement living projects for Torsion Care in Shipley, Bingley, Brighouse, Sleaford, Lincoln and York for which Dudleys provided full engineering consultancy support.
In Durham, Torsion Care has just completed the purchase of land at Mount Oswald in partnership with Banks Group. Having supported the project through planning stages Dudleys is now working on site to deliver a purpose designed, three and a half storey care home offering 74 en-suite bedrooms with state-of-the-art care facilities.
Torsion Care is also poised to deliver a new 72-bedroom care home in Chesterfield after securing planning consent subject to conditions. Dudleys is supporting the redevelopment of the former Walton Works, including Grade II listed mill buildings for the care home alongside new housing.
In Bradford Torsion is redeveloping a brownfield site at Eccleshill to build a new 72-bedroom care home with associated ancillary services. Dudleys is providing engineering solutions to raise the site level by approximately 3 metres to provide a level plateau.
Works are also due to commence on site next month in Worksop where Torsion is building a new 70-bed care home within the expanding development at Gatefold Toll Bar in Worksop. Dudleys is delivering full civil and structural engineering support, working alongside Watson Batty Architects which is designing the scheme.
