Opportunity:
We have a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious and talented Document Controller within our Highways & General Civils business unit, to be work on our Old Street Project.

The project: Old Street, London
The Old Street roundabout project is the first contract let by TfL as part of their Civil Projects Framework.
The scheme will remove the existing one-way operation of the signalised Old Street roundabout to improve cycle and pedestrian facilities, reduce collisions and provide an enhanced urban realm.
The roundabout island will be removed to form a new peninsula style junction, similar to that recently constructed in 2016 at the Elephant & Castle junction in Southwark.
The Works will entail major realignment of the carriageway and significant modifications to the subways and station entrances to facilitate the widened carriageways and segregated cycle lanes.
The new formed peninsula will provide an open pedestrianized area with additional seating and retail facilities.
