The Willmott Dixon team
Contractor Willmott Dixon, which is also currently delivering a number of significant schemes within Wolverhampton, including the WV Living development of 266 homes and the refurbishment of Wolverhampton’s Civic Halls, has finished the state-of-the-art 12,000 sq metre facility of five floors.
The school puts industry at the heart of the university’s campus, alongside the £16.4m UK Rail Research and Innovation Network Centre of Excellence in Digital Systems.
It features a Student Support Hub, design centre, 20 flexi-bays for staff and student interactions and three 50-seat seminar rooms.
The basement also houses a full-size set of railway points, the university’s pantograph test rig and a test track for the scaled hydrogen-powered train.
