Construction is to begin on a £28 million office development in Milton Keynes.

Galliford Try's Building East Midlands business has reached financial close on the 100 Avebury Boulevard scheme with developer AW James, clearing the way for work to begin.

Features will include 140,000 sq ft of Category A accommodation over eight floors, as well as additional retail space. In addition, the site will also incorporate a landscaped garden and public plaza to the front of the new building.

Both our architects and Galliford Try have been putting a great deal of effort into creating a really impressive and sustainable building that will enhance the local landscape and provide plenty of opportunity for companies that are thinking about moving to a great new location, that is so well connected."

Our business has a strong track record in producing high-quality office accommodation within the region and we look forward to working with AW James and the stakeholders involved to create a new landmark for Milton Keynes."
