Sweett Group has been appointed to provide quantity surveying services on a £1 billion expansion project at the University of Glasgow.

The University is planning to carry out an extensive capital programme at its Gilmorehill Campus over the next 10 years.

Features of the programme include infrastructure works and construction of new buildings at the campus and the adjacent former Western Infirmary site.

Each research, teaching and learning building will be designed to be low energy and produce low carbon.

Sweett's Regional MD for Scotland and Ireland, William Allan, said: "This is the University of Glasgow's single largest estates project in its history, since its move from the city centre in the 1870s, and we are delighted to play such an integral role in this significant development that will add enormous value to the local and wider community, to staff, and to students from around the globe."
