Associated British Ports has appointed Osborne to carry out £1.4 million worth of redevelopment near the Dry Dock No. 7 on West Bay Road in Southampton.

The project will see the area converted into a cargo handling berth with access to an adjacent berth that is also undergoing development.

Work on the job includes demolitions, new roads, fencing, lighting and dock up-grades as well as non-tidal works to the quayside including heavy duty chamber covers and new anchor bollards, plus tidal works to the now flooded Dry Dock 7 consisting of new safety chains, access ladders and infilling of old stairways.

Work starts this summer and completion is expected by the end of 2008.
