Cormac win Highly Commended at the prestigious Concrete Society Awards

Cormac are delighted to have been awarded Highly Commended in the Structural Category at The Concrete Society Awards in Plymouth last week, for our Coverack Coastal Defence project. The £3.2M scheme now protects the coastline with a 57m long reinforced concrete retaining wall, in turn protected by 8000 tonnes of granite rock armour. Following the temporary works to stabilise the cliff face and the highway above, the wall was constructed in eight separate bays and was tied into the existing sea wall. Materials and plant were brought in by barge and landing craft, avoiding major disruption to the village of Coverack and it’s residents. Well done Team!

Newquay Strategic Route

Work on the new transport link Newquay Strategic Route, is well underway. Due to open in Summer 2024, Cormac are delivering the project on behalf of Cornwall Council, in partnership with Network Rail and the Duchy of Cornwall. The finished route will connect the Nansledan development to the A392 at Hendra roundabout. Our recently captured aerial footage shows a flyover of the new route from Market Street, Nansledan and takes in the newly installed, pre-cast concrete BEBO arches that will form the bridge over the watercourse that feeds in to the River Gannel. Seven arches were installed in total, together with pre-cast concrete VSoL wall panels, which will form a causeway either side of the arch.
