Tilbury Douglas North East regional director Mark Gardham said: “We are delighted to be working in collaboration with both Durham Constabulary and the Durham PCC, this is a key investment and will be a fantastic new building to support their operational priorities.

“As a local contractor and Durham City of Culture 2025 supporter, our priority is always to maximise social value, including local supplier use, employment and apprenticeship creation.

“We are also using modern methods of construction to improve health, safety, quality and sustainability outcomes.”

In December last year, the company commenced refurbishment work on the phase one of a major refurbishment project to restore and reopen historic Old Library in Oldham, Greater Manchester.
