IFA2 Daedalus

The next generation of power transmission will rely on infrastructure from Blanchard Wells. This project involved expert groundworks, reinforced concrete walls and slab work at the IFA2 site at Daedalus, Lee-on-Solent for the power line transformer station where the undersea energy connection enters the UK.

Main Contractor : Morgan Sindall
Package : Groundwork, RC walls and slab
Location : Portsmouth
Engineer : Baker Hicks

Earlier engagement with the main contractor and design team has assisted the project stakeholders to achieving a product that is not only of high quality, built on time, incorporated service voids and penetrations, along with budget constraints. The Blanchard Wells team have developed an open communication process, which develops transparency and collaborative working. Blanchard Wells bring the added benefit of group strengths, groundwork and concrete frames, to deliver a programme that would have been hampered if packages had been split.
