I & H BROWN, EXHIBITORS AT SCOTTISH TRANSPORT CONFERENCE & EXHIBITION - SECC 15 SEPTEMBER 2009
PRESS RELEASE
I & H BROWN – LEADING THE WAY IN TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE PROVISION
Increasingly active in the provision of transport infrastructure, Perth based I & H Brown is ideally placed to meet the challenges that transport providers currently face. The company has extensive experience in offering sustainable solutions in main road and drainage networks, public sector highway works, access roads, hardstandings, car parks, concrete bridges and structural foundations.
With its own impressive in-house resources, supply chain and multi award winning land remediation division, I & H Brown offers clients a one stop shop approach which is proactive, wide-ranging and cost effective.
Recent contracts include:
Overton Farm, Falkirk – primary infrastructure for 600 new houses
A93 Craighall Gorge Re-alignment – 2.5km of new highway works
Toryglen Drainage Scheme – 1,500m of deep drainage in contaminated land
Glasgow Velodrome – infrastructure, remediation & enabling works on site of National Indoor Sports Arena & Velodrome in East End of Glasgow to be built for 2014 Commonwealth Games
M80 - offline earthworks & drainage for Highway Management Contractors (on-going)
Said Contracts Director Roger Philpott:
“With our largest civil engineering projects to date – Overton Farm in Falkirk, the M80 and the prestigious Commonwealth Game enabling works – all relating to infrastructure schemes, we are now in a very strong position to continue growing this element of our business as we have done particularly in the last five years. A major advantage we have in the marketplace is our specialist remediation skills which come to the fore when infrastructure projects incorporate elements of contaminated land or water, such as the Toryglen Scheme.”
“We are also used to working in partnership with others which can mean helping them to win contracts in the first instance and then carrying out the work or developing land with others or on their behalf,” he added. “Some Infrastructure projects can also involve sensitively working round shared access routes and existing residential dwellings and this is another area in which we excel with many complex and sensitive infrastructure projects under our belt.”
As well as promoting sustainable solutions to its clients with innovative remediation methods which actively reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill, I & H Brown operates its own Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability Policy which includes careful monitoring of the effects of its activities on the environment.
Said I & H Brown Managing Director Scott Brown:
“On behalf of the company I would like to wish this year’s delegates and guest speakers at the 2009 Transport Conference all the very best. We are delighted to be involved and it’s a superb opportunity for us to network with potential clients and partner companies to demonstrate our wealth of experience and effective sustainable solutions in the area of transport infrastructure.”
