Congratulating the overall winners, CEF Managing Director John Armstrong said: "Heron Bros' work in delivering the £27m project is an excellent example of how our local construction industry is pivotal to the development of so many important projects across a wide range of sectors in Northern Ireland each year.
"The judging panel were particularly impressed at the best-practice construction techniques including major site excavation over a 38-acre site, innovative value engineering changes derived from their site-based team and use of emerging mobile technology to manage their supply chain. They were also extremely impressed in how the project was managed, and in particular how Heron Bros exceeded the sustainability objectives to deliver a 'best in class' project."
The Construction Excellence Awards are in their 19th year, with this year seeing a record number of over 120 entries across all 14 categories.
