The development is part of a substantial modification of Telehouse South, the company’s largest data facility in Docklands.
Skanska UK managing director Dan Williams said: “We are excited to be working with Telehouse to deliver this project. It is something we are ideally suited for, as we are experienced in delivering a wide range of data centre fit-outs.”
The scope of this project covers the mechanical, electrical and public health engineering fitting out of two of the property’s floors.
In addition to installing air conditioning and ventilation, the work comprises installing electrical equipment and systems, a new roof gantry for plants and new lifts.
Other works include cladding restoration and redesigning the building’s security entrances, alongside a new gatehouse and fence.
