Morgan Sindall has completed work on a new vehicle export terminal as part of a £50 million investment project at the Port of Southampton.

The Pacific Terminal is the sixth multi-deck facility at the Port and works were completed over three weeks ahead of schedule.

It is one of two new car storage facilities recently delivered by Morgan Sindall, with a seventh multi-deck storage facility, as yet un-named, completed four weeks early with just seven weeks between each completion date. Both projects have a combined value of £24.5m.

Overall, the two developments have created almost 10,000 additional vehicle spaces.

Morgan Sindall's managing director for the South, Andy Duff, said: "The Port of Southampton is a key UK asset and we're proud to have formed such a successful relationship with ABP to deliver this strategic new terminal, building on its capability as a world-leading import and export hub.

"Working collaboratively with ABP and major car transporters at the dock, our team delivered on budget and ahead of schedule. This was a fitting way to end these key projects, the fourth and fifth schemes we have successfully delivered for ABP."

Alastair Welch, ABP Southampton Director, said: "Morgan Sindall has done well in completing these two new facilities and overcoming all the challenges the projects presented. We're delighted to have received these not only within budget, but also ahead of schedule."
