“Over 70 projects were rigorously judged and we are delighted to reveal the list of those in with a chance of winning a much sought after award at the gala evening in October.
“The spectacular array of entries for this year’s awards clearly demonstrates the industry’s |commitment to quality and continuous improvement.”
The competition attracts |entries from multi-million pound civil engineering jobs to community centres by construction companies of all sizes.
Projects which have made the shortlist include the Victoria Square Regeneration Project (Farrans Gilbert-Ash JV), Lough Erne Golf Resort and Spa (McCann Brothers Ireland), The Crown Bar (Gilbert-Ash NI) and University of Ulster Belfast Campus (Patton Construction).
