The procurement process ended on 26th May 2023 with the award of the Pre Construction Services Agreement (PCSA).
Following the completion of the PCSA stage by no later than 24th October 2023,the EEOC project will proceed to Full Business Case (FBC) approval in November 2023.The project will quickly then progress to delivery stage, with the start on site scheduled for no later than 19th February 2024.
