This year the Construction News Awards are celebrating their 21 years of celebrating the very best contractors in the UK. CN editor Tom Fitzpatrick said:

“This year’s Construction News Awards shortlist showcases the best that UK construction has to offer, both for the economy and for communities across the UK and internationally. In uncertain economic times ahead of Brexit, construction businesses are getting on with keeping the UK moving. They are building the infrastructure, homes and workplaces this country desperately needs and we’re proud to recognise those companies striving to create an ever more productive, diverse and talented industry.”

The winners will be announced on 13 July 2017 at a glamorous ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London, where over 1,400 of the industry’s elite will join together for a night of entertainment, celebration and networking. The Construction News Awards is organised by Construction News, part of EMAP.  For more information about Construction News, see http://www.constructionnews.co.uk/
