Lovell has scooped a British Safety Council International Safety Award for The Courtyard, its housing development at Bank Street, Irvine, for the second successive year.

The accolade recognises organisations that have shown a real commitment to setting and maintaining high health and safety standards.

To gain the award, which is assessed by independent adjudicators, Lovell had to show that it has a comprehensive health and safety regime in place at the Bank Street construction site. The company also had to provide evidence of the accident record on site and of initiatives undertaken to keep improving health and safety standards.

"Keeping our workforce safe on site and ensuring the health and safety of those who live or work near our developments is an absolute priority and I am delighted that this award has recognised the dedication and hard work of our team at Irvine and of our subcontractors," said Alan Taylor, Regional Director for Lovell.

The Courtyard is a £6.2 million development of 48 townhouses and flats in Bank Street Irvine.
