“No Government has given such attention to the infrastructure of our great northern cities and how to deliver a world-class, integrated transport network for the North.”
Rt Hon Patrick McLoughlin MP, Secretary of State for Transport

With projected pipeline figures of up to £40 billion on infrastructure projects due to begin between 2015 and 2018, the opportunities in this region are substantial.
