Balfour Beatty is featured in Wiltshire Times for its involvement in the restoration of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in Devizes, Wiltshire. The company is set to remove 13 pylons from the North Wessex Downs landscape as part of National Grid's Visual Impact Provision (VIP). Matthew Taylor, Balfour Beatty's Power and Transmission Distribution Senior Project Manager, highlighted the project's progress and the complex construction works being undertaken. He mentioned that the company is focused on maintaining positive relationships with existing landowners, including tenants and farmers with their own businesses.
Balfour Beatty's Power Transmission & Distribution teams are working on this project, handling tasks such as trenching, laying ducts, and cable pulling. The company's expertise in providing technical engineering solutions across the electricity grid, including overhead lines, cabling, substations, and distribution networks, is crucial for the successful execution of such projects.
The company's involvement in significant global projects, such as Hinkley Point C, the Lyric Theatre in Hong Kong, and the Automated People Mover superstructure at Los Angeles International Airport, demonstrates its commitment to delivering powerful new solutions and shaping infrastructure worldwide. Balfour Beatty's dedication to creating iconic buildings and infrastructure, along with its focus on local communities, is evident in its work.
