As part of our Project Insights Series Andy Geldard spoke to Project Director Jason Hunt about the incredible Bristol Beacon. Preservation of a stage that The Beatles graced. Ornamental plasterwork restored by craftsmen that worked on the Palace of Versailles. Three uncharted Elizabethan wells. A hall the size of 6.5 Olympic swimming pools and foundations strengthened by enough concrete to fill 1,280 bathtubs. £13m contribution to the local economy annually, 800+ events a year and 30,000 children able to access music technology labs. What do these things have in common? Bristol Beacon: a landmark project putting Bristol on an international stage. This was no normal project; it tested every facet of Willmott Dixon’s delivery team. Throughout the construction, Willmott Dixon adopted a one team approach.  The collaborative relationship with our customer, supply chain partners and stakeholders enabled us to meet the challenges we faced and overcome them together. Through Covid, Brexit, skills shortages, material shortages and structural issues, the team worked tirelessly to deliver this iconic building, the largest concert venue in the Southwest of England.
