Ireland's National Development Finance Agency (NDFA) has announced that Woodvale has been appointed as the replacement works contractor for the Schools Bundle 5 PPP Project.
The project was awarded to Inspired Spaces, a consortium comprised of Carillion and DIF Infrastructure III, in December 2013. The liquidation of Carillion in January of this year and the subsequent examinership and liquidation of Carillion’s sub-contractor, Sammon, has significantly affected the progress of the project.
As replacement contractor, Woodvale will facilitate the completion of the three most advanced schools - Loreto College, Wexford; Coláiste Raithín, Bray, and Ravenswell Primary School, Bray - by the end of August.
The company will also undertake survey and preliminary work at the other three buildings in the Bundle – Tyndall College, Carlow, Carlow Institute of Further Education, and Eureka Secondary School, Kells. This survey and preliminary work will be undertaken during the summer and will provide a detailed scope of works to enable the contract arrangements to be finalised for the completion of these schools by the end of December.
