Bristol Uni
VALUE £20M
PROGRAMME 10 MONTHS
Toureen were appointed by Sir Robert McAlpine on a 51-week contract for the construction of the RC Frames as part of Bristol University’s new campus development.
Opening in 2026, the campus at Cattle Market Road, next to Temple Meads Station, will enhance the University of Bristol’s reputation as a global destination for world-leading research, education and innovation.
The site will be home to 4,600 students and 650 university staff who will come together with business and community partners to tackle some of the world’s greatest challenges. Residential accommodation on Temple Island will provide living space for around 900 students.
At the heart of the campus, on the site of the former Royal Mail sorting office, a 38,000 sq.m academic building will be home to the University’s Business School, digital engineering research groups, Centre for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, the Quantum Technologies Innovation Centre and provide dedicated facilities for enterprise and community partners.
The campus will strengthen the data science, digital innovation, creative industries, cyber and quantum technology sectors that are already flourishing in Bristol and the West of England.
In addition, the campus will also be a hub for local communities who will be welcomed on site to use the facilities and open spaces. Parts of the campus have been shaped in consultation with civic and community partners as dedicated spaces for groups to work together to address local, national and global challenges. At the evenings, weekends and during university holidays, local people are invited to take part in lifelong learning programmes, events, festivals and research activities.
