Wates Construction plans to grow its high rise residential project portfolio across the North West in a big expansion push.<\/p>\n

The new growth strategy follows the completion of Select Property Group\u2019s Vita Student development at Manchester\u2019s Circle Square.<\/p>\n

Wates will use the success of the 748-bed development as a springboard to chase projects in the booming private rental sector and student accommodation sectors.<\/p>\n

Paul Dodsworth, managing director at Wates Construction North, said: \u201cHigh rise residential will form a big part of our business\u2019 growth strategy for 2019, building on the exceptional quality that the team has delivered at Circle Square.<\/p>\n

“As with all growth in our industry our team, their skills and expertise and our valued supply chain partners are integral to this.<\/p>\n

He said: “Construction activity in the region is showing no signs of slowing, which is undoubtedly positive news. With positive news, however, comes the risk of complacency, something we must be mindful of if we\u2019re to keep up the incredible momentum we\u2019re seeing in the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the collapse of Carillion at the start of this year, stability in the construction sector is now more than ever the absolute priority and ensuring the security of projects, and the employment opportunities they bring, is front and centre of everyone\u2019s minds.<\/p>\n

“With our business\u2019 strategy for 2019 comes a commitment to ensuring that our growth is sustainable and ultimately that we continue to support the solid performance of our thriving sector in the north west.\u201d<\/p>\n
