The 24-acre site will become an exemplar in sustainable urban development, attracting leading edge science and technology organisations to a mixed new community which will encompass a variety of educational, business, residential and leisure uses. Enabling, infrastructure and public realm works were completed in 2014 to make the site development ready and the first buildings, The Core and The Key, are now open. Construction works for the Urban Sciences Building has begun and is expected to open at the beginning of the academic year in September 2017. The next building to follow the Urban Sciences Building is the Learning & Teaching Centre (LTC) (formerly known as the Conference & Learning Centre). The LTC, including adjacent infrastructure works for the Science Central LLP, is proposed to be located at Science Central which is developed by a civic partnership between Newcastle City Council and Newcastle University. The proposed location is part of the strategic decision to co-locate all of the Business School’s undergraduate teaching (excluding service teaching to non-Business School students) at Science Central. This will sit alongside and have physical connections into the new Urban Sciences Building scheduled to open in September 2017. This ITPN is for the recruitment of a main contractor for this scheme. The University is looking to appoint the main contractor by 9th December 2016, commence construction works on site by 18th September 2017 (following second stage tender period) with completion and handover of the building by 28th June 2019.
