Industry & Job Update For The FIFA World Cup 2022 In Qatar
Hosting a super-sporting event like the FIFA World Cup is a huge task for any country. However, Qatar’s bid was even more ambitious than previous World Cups due to the considerable amount of stadia and infrastructure needing to be built for it to happen.
This has created a huge demand for construction workers, and with not enough skilled local workforce, Qatar is relying on a huge expatriate workforce to meet the demand.
With less than 7 years to go, construction is well underway. Let’s take a look at how they’re progressing.
Qatar’s bid to FIFA was to play its matches across 12 stadiums, with 9 being built completely from scratch.
Its plan to invest $250 billion in the construction project shows the large investment it takes for such a large event to take place.
This investment also spills over into many other industries, with the tourism, transport and hospitality being the primary benefactors.
It has been said an additional 70,000 hotel rooms will be required and large transport and tourism upgrades such as upgrades to airports, new expressways, Doha subway system, sewage system, skyscrapers and high speed rail services to neighbouring countries (source) are essential for the World Cup to run smoothly.
In an economy that doubled in the past decade, this continued investment is likely to trigger further economic growth, improving salaries and offering opportunities for expats to work.
An estimated 500,000 to 1 million foreign workers are likely to be called upon during the construction process, likely to last all the way until 2022.
How are the projects progressing?
Construction on many of the projects that were part of the World Cup begun last year, with continued progress on many of the stadiums and other infrastructure upgrades.
Although an original number of 12 stadiums were proposed, it is likely Qatar will only use 8 stadiums, which means a total of 5 stadiums will now be built from scratch (down from the original number of 9).
One of those, the Lusail Stadium, the venue where the final of the FIFA World Cup will be held has just begun construction. When finished, it will hold a capacity of around 80,000 spectators and sit on a site of 1 million square meter site in Lusail City.
It is the 6th stadium that has begun its construction or refurbishment with others including venues in Al Wakrah, Al Khor, Khalifa Stadium in Al Waab, Education City and Al Rayyan, to the west of Doha.
A final decision on the number of stadiums left to be built is expected to be known by the end of the year, but if predictions are correct, the two remaining ones would be on the site of Qatar Sports Club in Dafna/West Bay and another near Hamad International Airport with vacancies still available in for such projects.
Transport, Tourism & Hospitality Update
Such a huge event will see the influx of a significant amount of tourists and spectators coming to the region, providing an opportunity for Qatar tourism to make a huge impact.
Hamad international Airport
One of those places requiring an upgrade was the airport in Qatar. The Hamad International Airport, has seen the first of two upgrades completed with the second phase of completion expected to be finished in 2018. Once concluded, it is anticipated to be double it’s current capacity and handle up to 50 million passengers per year.
Bechtel was awarded the contract for the development of the airport, which includes the design, construction management and project management of the facilities. Any request to work on this project should be made there.
Doha Subway & Rail System
50% of the tunnelling has said to be completed on the new Doha Subway system according to Qatar Rail’s managing director, Abdulla Abdulaziz Al Subaie.
Construction is anticipated to last right through to 2019 where they hope to have the entire system open to the public, including four lines and a total of 37 stations.
Other transport projects, the Lusail Light Rail Transit Network and other long distance rail networks are in the pipeline, but are uncertain as to the start and completion date. This will remain uncertain until a higher concentration of residents and workers move in according to Doha news.
As well as public transport system, an upgrade to Qatar’s transport links by road is currently underway, with a huge national freeway linking key cities and towns expected to be completed by 2016.
The $8.1 billion project is expected to deliver over 900km of new roads to improve journey times and flow within and between major cities and towns according to construction week online.
Post World Cup Construction Opportunities
Infrastructure isn’t confined to the lead up to the World Cup in 2022. Projects like Doha’s new port is expected to last beyond the completion of the FIFA World Cup and the refurbishments and renovations of the World Cup stadiums to bring the capacity to smaller, 20,000-seater stadiums, will continue to provide construction opportunities deep into the next decade.

Just along the coast, Heart of Hastings Community Land Trust are doing exciting things in community-led housing and land development. Some of the BHCLT staff team and Directors visited the CLT on Wednesday 28 November to have a look at what they’re up to and share our experiences with each other.
As a coastal community, Hastings has some similarities to Brighton & Hove but it’s on the brink of a wave of gentrification that we have already experienced and is about to become somewhere where house prices outstrip wages.
We met Jess, Shelley, Sam, and James from the Heart of Hastings team at Rock House, a building which James told us is the centre of a ‘co-operative ecosystem’. Rock House is in the White Rock area of Hastings – where much of Heart of Hastings’ work is focused. It is one of the town’s poorest neighbourhoods but is changing rapidly.
Rock House has taken a previously underused building and transformed its nine floors to living space, work space and a community hub. It is owned by White Rock Neighbourhood Ventures – a joint venture between three social enterprise organisations: Meanwhile Space CIC, Jericho Road Solutions and Power to Change.
Rock House was part of the inspiration for setting up the Heart of Hastings as a CLT. It was also a response to the fears of gentrification in the White Rock area – to use collective social investment to buy underused or disused properties, renovate them using local tradespeople, and to then rent them out at rates capped to reflect local incomes, keeping them affordable for future generations.
Heart of Hastings’ first main project focuses on community-led regeneration in the Ore Valley, transforming a 40 year derelict industrial site into a thriving, community-owned, permanently affordable eco-village. Using their innovative Bottom Up Development (BUD) approach they aim to deliver 77 homes, up to 100 jobs and lasting regeneration with wider benefits for the whole town.
Just down the road from Rock House we saw 39 Cambridge Road, the Heart of Hastings’ first town centre property. Originally built as housing nearly 200 years ago, it has been an insurance broker since around 1840. Heart of Hastings are returning it to its original use as housing and locking in affordability forever.
Heart of Hastings use innovative ways to select people for their housing. Firstly, it’s based on need, local connection and ability to pay but they are also looking for people who are enthusiastic about co-operation. They are always swamped with applications and use a group selection exercise to decide who the tenants will be.
Another Heart of Hastings project we visited was 12 Claremont, a five storey building on which they are working in partnership with Project Art Works, an artist led organisation working with children, young people and adults who have complex support needs. The building will house a gallery, community space, support and advice centre, affordable and wheelchair accessible meeting space and artist studio and living space.
It was a very useful trip for BHCLT and both CLTs learned a lot from each other about the way we work and our different experiences. Both of us have high levels of private rented accommodation in some areas which make them vulnerable to gentrification. We are both urban, seaside areas and both CLTs employ qualified community organiser which means that we take some similar approaches in how we work with people. We’re looking forward to keeping in touch and ultimately a future where our urban, coastal areas are places where a diverse range of people can afford to live and thrive.

Trying to salvage the bad deal that Mayor Williams struck in September with Major League Baseball, D.C. Council Chairman Linda Cropp yesterday exercised her legal prerogative and placed the issue of stadium financing on today’s calendar. If lawmakers vote today, it would be the second “final” vote on a ballpark financing plan.
Today’s scheduled meeting follows much ado following last week’s vote, which kept the baseball deal alive when Mrs. Cropp, the swing vote, moved her colleagues toward a 7-6 compromise that calls for at least 50 percent private financing vs. the all-public-financing that the mayor had proposed. The legislation does concede the site for the new stadium would be the Anacostia waterfront. Baseball officials called the private-public funding deal “wholly unacceptable,” sending both the mayor and the council chairman on PR romps, trying to solidify support for their respective camps.
The chairman appears to be a victor based on the mayor’s own comments and a new poll. Asked in a survey taken by The Washington Post whether they “approve or disapprove” of the Cropp plan, 56 percent of respondents said “approve,” while 41 percent said “disapprove” and 4 percent had no opinion. When asked whether the mayor or the council would be at fault if the city gets no baseball team, 47 percent pointed to the mayor, 37 percent to the council, 12 percent said neither and 4 had no opinion.
Finally, the mayor, who wanted a team at any cost, appears to have taken public opinion to heart. Prior to meeting yesterday with Mrs. Cropp, the mayor said there are several viable proposals that include private financing for the stadium — a stadium whose projected costs are $600 million-plus. Part of that “plus” includes infrastructure costs, as well as the cost of buying privately owned land included in the stadium site plan. The mayor said he will work with the council and the chief financial officer on those proposals.
One easily imagines the mayor biting his upper lip yesterday when he said: “We can begin this proposal the way we’ve outlined it, and we can always do what is called ‘take out’ the city’s position. In other words, someone can step in place of the city and assume the city’s obligation.”
That is precisely what we’ve been saying all along.
Mrs. Cropp gave the mayor a chance to improve his plan in November, but he wasn’t paying attention. She handed him another opportunity last week. The mayor should be grateful that Mrs. Cropp has handed him yet another chance to get the deal right. As the council’s plans for the holiday recess take shape and as baseball’s Dec. 31 deadline draws nearer, today might be the mayor’s last chance to lessen “the city’s obligation.”

The night work schedule for this project is 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. (Sunday night through Saturday morning).
Drivers should be aware that modifications or extensions to this schedule may become necessary due to weather delays or other unforeseen conditions. They are advised to remain alert, drive cautiously, and to maintain a safe speed when driving in this vicinity.


The Public Art League is proud to announce the installation of Asteray, a sculpture by Nicole Beck. The Public Art League worked with the City of Urbana to complete the installation near the corner of Green and Cedar streets in downtown Urbana. Asteray represents the 42nd sculpture the Public Art League has brought to the community, and its installation is possible thanks to the generous support of Barak Rosenshine.
Nicole Beck is a sculptor with strong ties to Illinois and Champaign-Urbana in particular, with her pieces Astroterra and Foxgloves featured in the community from 2011-2013, and Amplifiers scheduled for future installation on the University of Illinois campus. In addition, her sculptures have been featured in numerous exhibits in Chicago, including Avenue of Sculpture at Merchandise Mart, Art in the Gardens at Grant Park, and the Clark Street Sculpture Exhibition, which described her work as “abstracted apparatus and organic forms juxtaposed as poetic metaphors for archetypes of the flow and balance of energy and life systems”.

Fremantle Line Disruptions
To build the new turnbacks at Claremont Station, eight weeks of intensive construction activity will take place from 5 February until 5 April 2021.
This will see major service impacts to the Fremantle Line during this work, including:
- No trains stopping at Claremont Station, with bus services only operating
- Three full line weekend closures, with train replacement bus services being available.
- Fremantle Line services between Showgrounds and Fremantle stations reduced to a 30-minute frequency with passengers required to change trains at Cottesloe Station (some passengers may also need to change at Showgrounds)
You can find detailed passenger service information available on the Transperth website. Visit the Transperth website or download the Transperth app to sign up for My Alerts to stay informed on the upcoming disruptions.
These new turnbacks are an important part of the Claremont Station Project.

Several Laguna Beach residents complained to the City Council on Tuesday night about the recent removal of 10 downtown trees.
The council last month approved the removal of seven trees due to sidewalk damage. The Planning Commission later OKd removal of three trees at 222 Ocean Ave.
Residents felt there wasn’t adequate notice before the removal, leaving them shocked and dismayed to see stumps around town.
Barbara MacGillivray said she’s had “sleepless nights” because of the council decision, which she called the “ficus discrimination edict.”
“I never realized how attached I was to our colorful green canopy,” she said. “Watching the tree wrecking crew obliterate three lovely ficuses close to the Marine Room was devastating.”
Mayor Kelly Boyd, former owner of the Marine Room Tavern, previously said the ficus trees were a nuisance at that location.
MacGillivray asked that sidewalk concerns be weighed against the beautification benefit that mature trees give downtown. She pointed out that Forest Avenue, where a couple of trees were chopped down, was named after the abundance of blue gum eucalyptuses.
“It has taken nearly 60 years for these beautiful light green canopies, home to countless birds … to become the mature arboreal species that they are,” she said. “The least we can do is have more discussion about which ones qualify for extra efforts for being saved.”
Ruben Flores, who owns Laguna Nursery, said he thought the planning wasn’t executed properly, noting the trees were planted in spring, a bad time to plant, and there hasn’t been a list of replacement trees put together yet.
Resident and noted IMAX filmmaker Greg MacGillivray, Barbara MacGillivray’s husband, said his parents moved to Laguna Beach from Corona del Mar because of the trees.
“The only reason people shop here or go to our restaurants or stay in our hotels is because Laguna Beach is far more charming than Corona del Mar, San Clemente or Dana Point,” he said. “It’s a matter of charm and visual beauty and what this place puts in your soul. A lot of that comes from the visual aspects of trees.”
He suggested putting notices on trees in question in the future.
The April 9 agenda bill, when the council voted to remove seven trees, included photos of the trees and the reasons for removal, City Manager John Pietig said. There were three public meetings about the tree removals – one on the group of seven and two on the three removed at 222 Ocean.
The city believes landscaping is important, Pietig said, but there also are public-safety and liability concerns.
“While trees are beautiful and we’re doing what we can to preserve them and trim there, there’s also a cost associated with them,” Pietig said. “Over the past five years … the city of Laguna Beach has paid $300,000 in settlements for trip-and-fall claims. That’s a serious problem that we have to address each year.”
The city also pays about $150,000 a year to repair sidewalks damaged by trees, he said.
City staff will present replacement tree options to the council in June, Pietig said.

There is much to enjoy with a pond, a children’s play area, and many monuments and sculptures - Corning Fountain in particular is a great place to cool off during this heat wave.

THE Nine-Mile public cemetery outside Port Moresby would soon close its gates to the citys dead.

Imagine waking up at 2 a.m. to find your house and all of your possessions and precious memories being engulfed by flames. For many Southern California residents, this nightmare became an all-too-real, frightening actuality on November 8, when the Woolsey Fire gained speed and began destroying everything in its path.
Imagine walking into your office on a Monday. You look to your left, you look to your right, and all of your colleagues are men.
No, this isn’t an episode of The Twilight Zone; however, for many women working in the field of urban and regional planning, this is an everyday reality.

Steel Bridge News, June, 2008, Craig Finley, P.E., Jerry Pfuntner, P.E., Matthew Adams
LOCATED ON OPPOSITE COASTS OF FLORIDA, TWO CURRENT BRIDGE PROJECTS WILL SERVE VASTLY DIFFERENT PURPOSES.
The Estero Parkway Flyover, near Fort Myers on Florida’s west coast, will ease traffic congestion on the parkway and offer travelers an alternate east-west route on the Tamiami Trail and 1-75. The Miami lntermodal Center Terminal Access Roadway Project – nicknamed MIC-MIA – will provide access to a rental car facility as part of a major upgrade of Miami International Airport.
But both projects have one thing in common (besides being in Florida): they were both initially designed to use concrete for the superstructure. Both were redesigned in steel by Finley Engineering Group in a value engineering process. And both will now be built faster and will save their respective owners approximately $2.5 million combined.

The Henri Coanda International Airport will surely be connected to Bucharest’s main train station Gara de Nord by train by 2020, when Bucharest hosts several matches of the European Football Championship – EURO 2020, said transport minister Lucian Sova.
However, the subway line to the airport won’t be finalized by then, Sova added.
“We will surely have the train, the subway – probably not,” Sova said in a press conference, Mediafax reported.
He added that he urged the railways company CFR to expedite the completion of the railway line to the airport, which requires an overpass over the DN1 national road. UEFA has asked Romania to provide adequate transport infrastructure for the Euro 2020 matches.

Budget related to the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) program is one of the topics we’ve heard Calgarians would like to discuss. You'll find some information about this topic and the opportunity to provide feedback below.
The capital budget approved by City council in 2014 allocated $78M to the BRT program, which includes the South Crosstown, North Crosstown, 17 Avenue S.E., and Southwest BRT projects. In the fall of 2015 the Government of Alberta approved The City of Calgary’s application for $130M in GreenTRIP funding for the BRT program, bringing the total approved BRT program funding to $208M.
The $208M BRT program budget was developed based on the following project estimates:
- South Crosstown BRT – Class 5 – Order of Magnitude estimate - $20M
- North Crosstown BRT – Class 5 – Order of Magnitude estimate - $50M
- 17 Avenue SE BRT – Class 4 – Conceptual Design - $98M
- Southwest BRT – Class 4 – Conceptual Design - $40M
Infrastructure programs and projects follow The City of Calgary Project Management Framework, which uses the following five stage process for estimating and establishing program and project budgets:
Class 5 – Order of Magnitude—Generally prepared based on very limited information. They’re often based on judgment and/or experience.
- Expected accuracy range is -50% to +100%
Class 4 – Conceptual Design—Generally prepared based on conceptual or feasibility studies considering project options and known constraints.
- Expected accuracy range is -40% to +75%
Class 3 – Preliminary Design—Generally prepared based on preliminary design information. Project assumptions and constraints have been defined.
- Expected accuracy range is -30% to +50%
Class 2 – Detailed Design—Generally prepared on detailed design information. Project constraints have been resolved and detailed design is advanced.
- Expected accuracy range is -15% to +20%
Class 1 – Final Design/Pre-Tender—Generally prepared based on the final design information. At this stage the design is complete.
- Expected accuracy range is -10% to +10%
The $208M BRT program budget was established based on project estimates at the Order of Magnitude and Conceptual Design stage. The Conceptual Design was based on having basic bus stops with limited features, similar to a standard bus shelter on a concrete pad. In the years since the conceptual design was produced, we’ve heard from Calgarians, through engagement as part of RouteAhead in 2012, that they’d like to see a higher level of service, with better features for an improved customer experience. This will have an impact on the cost of individual projects.
The City is currently in the design phase for all four of the new BRT projects. As design progresses, we know that the costs of some projects will decrease and others will increase. The City is in the process of balancing the costs of each project to deliver the entire BRT program within the approved budget of $208M.
An update on the budget for the BRT program will be presented to the Transit and Transportation Committee of City Council on April 20, 2016.
Do you have any questions about the BRT program budget?

The City released a hotly anticipated, deeply controversial (to transportation nerds, anyway) report on “tech shuttles” last week, but it may have included a major snafu.
The report, which lays outs the dangers and benefits of moving Silicon Valley commuter shuttles off of San Francisco streets and into hubs, follows The City touting its accomplishments in ticketing law-breaking shuttle drivers…(more)
PHOTOS TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT COMPLIANCE
Commuter Shuttle Hub Study November 15, 2016
Links to documents from the November 15, 2016 SFMTA Board Meeting:
Many people noted the Out of Compliance Bus featured on the cover of the report and commented on it. It seems that SFMTA staff is less familiar with the regulations than the public is. For some reason all the photos chosen for the report show the tech buses in Muni stops.
Two photos by Ozzie Rohm of 24th Street in Noe Valley during morning rush hour illustrate why the neighbors want relief from the onslaught on tech shuttles.
The Nov 15, 2016 MTA Board agenda item 11 addressing the HUB analysis and the Six Month Update contained 77 pages. Only two minutes of public comment was allowed!
Supervisor Wiener request a meeting at the The Board of Supervisors (BOS) Land Use Committee. There is not a date set yet. We will watch the BOS meeting agendas for updates.
MTA CAC (Citizens Advisory Council) has scheduled a Commuter Bus HUB presentation for Thursday. Dec 1, 5:30pm at 1 South Van Ness, 7th Floor.
SFCTA CAC (SF County Transportation Authority Citizen Advisory Committee) has a presentation scheduled for Wednesday November 30, 6 PM at 1455 Market Street, 22nd Floor. Will follow-up to determine if this may change due to the holidays.
Many thanks for everyone who wrote letters, emails and personally made public comment.

Located halfway between Santa Monica and Downtown Los Angeles, this is our 2nd Goorin Bros. location in Los Angeles. Larchmont is LA's best kept secret. The boulevard was developed in the 1920's, surrounded by a residential area. Many of the homes standing were built during that time and remain well restored, rooting the area in history.

Besides reviewing the Draft Sidewalk Master Plan and re-examining off-leash dog exercise areas in its city parks, the Westlake Village City Council's Wednesday agenda grappled with what to do about Amazing Healing Supply. This is a medical marijuana distributor that set up shop in a business park on May 30, according to the Ventura County Star. When it first learned of Amazing's existence, the council on July 8 declared a 45-day moratorium on all pot pharms. Wednesday, it decided to extend the ban for 10 and a half more months — effectively shutting down Amazing.
Amazing, which in its brief existence earned a three and three-quarter-star rating on LAmsterdam.com, has responded by petitioning L.A. Superior Court, claiming its business is protected by the passage of Proposition, 215, which allowed the emergence of pot dispensaries throughout California; the business also claims it has not violated any Westlake Village zoning ordinances.
The case will no doubt be among the first of many throughout
California, as communities begin to take second looks at the possibly
deleterious effects of pot dispensaries, while at the same time they
ponder the tax revenues such establishments could bring in
during the current financial crisis. Amazing Healing Supply probably
shouldn't hope to play the tax card with Westlake Village, however.
While the master-planned community may eerily resemble the suburban
setting of the TV series Weeds, its middle-class tax base will probably shield the town from the temptations of seeking green gold.


Majestic views of the Hauraki Gulf and its islands have been protected for future generations.
When the Auckland Unitary Plan became operative in 2016 Stockade Hill’s views were not guaranteed, prompting calls for a planning rule change.
After listening to community concerns, Auckland Council initiated a change in 2018 that introduced the Stockade Hill Viewshaft Overlay.
Although it guaranteed seaward views, an appeal calling for 360-degree view protection was lodged with the Environment Court.
Housing New Zealand also lodged an appeal, but both have now been settled, meaning the change can be made operative.
The Stockade Hill Viewshaft Overlay will be a standalone Auckland Unitary Plan chapter that protects seaward views by restricting development heights in the overlay area so views are not obstructed.


Raker beams that support the precast risers can be designed using steel or precast concrete. Gravity connections between the precast riser and raker assembly should be designed with field access in consideration. Gravity connection shown allows access to connection via blockouts in riser and connection is completed from above risers. Connections are typically designated to be fixed on one end and allow slip on the other end for seismic design. After connection is completed, foam voids are placed over bolted connection and blockout is grouted solid from top of riser.
Stadium design and the environment the structure creates for the fan experience is often the trademark that defines a city. Architects need stadium framing products that are versatile, supporting their creative designs, and are durable enough to resist heavy loads and foot traffic. Precast stadia is versatile and has been the clear choice for designers who want to create seating configurations of any shape with unobstructed and unique open spaces that enhance the fan experience.

At the Dec. 13, 2016 council meeting, Carleton Place council approved a bylaw change that will allow businesses to be open on statutory holidays, a decision that Stalwart Brewing Co. has been hoping for since it first requested an amendment to the current bylaw back in August.
After about six months of in-depth discussion on whether or not the bylaw should be approved, residents of Carleton Place and tourists to the area will soon be able to enjoy flavourful Stalwart brews and shopping on holidays like Canada Day and Victoria Day. The Carleton Place Business Improvement Association (BIA) and Carleton Place and District Chamber of Commerce both expressed support for the approval of the bylaw after many months of discussion with their respective memberships.
“From our point of view, we definitely support it,” said Mark Lovell, chair of the Carleton Place BIA board.
“I support this, I think it’s reasonable, and I think everyone can be accommodated,” said Carleton Place Mayor Louis Antonakos. “I feel that the process we went through was a good one, I think we learned a lot,” he told council
The bylaw will be passed at the next council meeting.

William Urry, Canterbury City Archivist, wrote that only two Canterbury streets had names more than 1000 years old – Burgate and Old Ruttington Lane. The very name Burgate (gate of the borough) suggests early origins – possibly Roman but certainly Saxon. The nearby wall sign ‘St Michael’s rectory’ (Image 1) serves as a reminder that, along with Holy Cross and St Mary Northgate, the church of St Michael was once located above its city gate. Somner relates that in 1475 the Burgate was in poor repair and rebuilt in brick. Helpful drawings of the gate as it might have appeared in 1540 and 1680 have been prepared by Canterbury Archaeological Trust (Images 2 and 3). There is evidence that the heads of executed traitors were stuck on the gate – Batholomew de Bradlesmere met this fate in 1322. The gate was dismantled over time – the south tower and arch went in 1781, and the remaining north tower in 1822. The inn immediately outside the gate, the Saracen’s Head, struggled on until demolition in 1968, making way for the new city ring road. Today all that reminds of this major city gate are a few building stones and coloured bricks.
What to see:
- one of the city’s dozen or so ‘Cozen stones‘ set in the pavement – this one badly cracked and worse for wear (Image 4)
- a few surviving stones from the gate, set high in the wall of the property at number 3 Burgate (Image 5)
- large wall writing reminding us of St Michael’s rectory
- coloured blocks marking out the extent of the gate and where it stood (Image 6)
Access: in open street

7th June 2005 Work has begun on pouring the initial stages of cement work which will eventually see the Hill of Difficulty road fully concreted. The first pour of concrete began last Wednesday but by Thursday morning all work had to be suspended because of rain. Concreting continued on Sunday and Monday. The first part of the road project is to concrete a water table or drainage along the side of the road which will lead rain water into existing culverts. So far approximately 100 meters of water table has been poured.

There's one question facing construction workers however and that is to find a suitable time to work on the slipway. The slipway will need to be closed off for approximately five weeks effectively shutting of access by sea for the Longboats. But time is limited as the next vessel, the Polar Stream (see news item 19th May), is due back around the 22nd of July.
Meanwhile sheet piling on the Jetty is nearing completion. Approximately 50 cubic meters of concrete will then be poured in one continuous go which may mean the work will have to be done in shifts.
More supplies including 200 tons of cement is expected to arrive on the Southern Salvor this Thursday.

A new seaside development set out with a lofty goal - to be Montenegro's first LEED certified project - and only the second LEED for Homes project in Europe. North 39 Energy (formerly Active Energies, Inc.) provided guidance on the LEED for Homes rating system to allow the project team to clearly understand the requirements for their first 10 multi-family buildings. North 39 provided Green Rater, Energy Rater and Provider services, including on-site performance testing of the systems and building envelope, leading to a smooth certification process.

THE construction of a £4.33 million primary care health centre in Colne is set to start today.
In December, Pendle Council’s Colne and District Committee gave plans for the erection of a three storey health centre in Craddock Road the green light.
Now, NHS East Lancashire has announced that approval has been received by NHS bosses to begin work on the former Kwik Save brownfield site immediately.
It is expected that the project will take a year to complete, and once finished will offer a range of health services, including GP practices, and community services.
Various areas were considered for the new health centre, including potential redevelopment sites off North Valley Road, Vivary Way, Dockray Street and Market Street, but were discounted on the grounds of suitability.
Dr. Mike Ions, chief clinical officer of East Lancashire Clinical Commissioning Group, hailed the development as great news. He said: “This is great news for patients in Colne.
“The new health centre will provide state of the art facilities fit for 21st Century healthcare and support GP commissioners in responding to the health needs of the local population”.
And Jackie Hadwen, chief executive of East Lancashire Building Partnership, who has led the project, said: “We are thrilled.
“The approval of the scheme is a testament to all the hard work by staff across the different health organisations working in Pendle.
“We have been assisted throughout by Pendle Borough Council and we have been blessed with tremendous support and input from local people and organisations for which we are very grateful.”
Local councillors and Pendle MP Andrew Stephenson have also expressed their delight at the fact the project has taken another step forward.
Leader of Pendle Council Coun. Joe Cooney said: “This is fantastic news for Colne. We have long needed a health centre that is fit for the 21st century and now we will have it.
“We also need to consider what the future will be for the current health centre building as I would be keen to see this prime town centre site redeveloped.”
And Mr Stephenson added: “I am delighted to hear that building work is set to start soon.
“This is wonderful news.”
l To allow access for construction vehicles onto the health centre site, LCC Highways have made a temporary “no loading or unloading order” at any time on parts of Newtown Street, both sides, between Craddock Road and Bence Street.
The notice is expected to last until Monday, January 20th 2014, “or until completion of the works if earlier”.


Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Shri Nitin Gadkari today laid the foundation stones for 8 National Highway Projects worth Rs. 3000 Crore in Rajamahendravaram, Andhra Pradesh in presence of Andhra Pradesh Roads & Buildings Minister Shri Dadisetti Ramalingeswara Rao , BJP State President Shri Somu Veer Raju, MPs, MLAs and senior officials.
Addressing the gathering Shri Gadkari said once the projects are completed, they will provide green field road connectivity to Kakinada SEZ*, SEZ Port, Fishing Harbour and Kakinada Anchorage Port, which will smoothen the export of rice, sea food, oil meals, iron-ore, bio-fuel, granite etc. through Kakinada Port.
The Minister said the road projects include construction of 5 flyovers at Kaikaram, Morampudi, Undarajavaram, Tetali & Jonnada and after their completion, it would provide hassle-free and safe traffic movement for places like Namavaram, Satellite City, Mandapeta, Ramchandrapuram, Kakinada, Undarajavaram, Nidadavolu, Tanuku Town and Kaikaram. Special safety features will be ensured for the rectification of blackspots.
Shri Gadkari said the other 3 projects that include 4-laning of Vakalapudi-Uppada-Annavaram & Samarlakota-Achampeta Junction and construction of 2-lane with paved shoulders from Rampachodavaram to Koyyuru will provide road connectivity to religious locations such as Samarlakota, Annavaram Bikkavolu, Ryali & Pithapuram. He said it would also provide road connectivity to tribal areas such as Araku & Lambasinghi and important tourist destinations of Andhra Pradesh such as Arakku Valley & Caves. It would also provide safe, better and fast intra-state connectivity through Kakinada and Alluri Sitharama districts, he added.
Shri Gadkari said government under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi is dedicated to unfolding prosperity in Andhra Pradesh through world class infrastructure & the development of above projects would create large scale employment in the state.

In the late summer of 2013, Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi found themselves desperately searching for a new airport terminal building.
Complete destruction of the arrival and departure areas in the main airport terminal buildings was caused by a fire.
The damage resulted in the airport having to close and East Africa’s largest transport hub was left deserted. With the urgent need to rebuild the main airport terminals immediately to minimise the disruption to domestic and international travelers the airport chose a temporary building. This decision ensured the airport would be back up and running much sooner than a permanent building and would have a design life of ten years.
The client required not only just the airport buildings and foundations but all internal components such as baggage handling equipment, lighting, internal and external fittings. Therefore HTS tentiQ was chosen over competitors.
Within 12 months of HTS tentiQ receiving the order, the project was designed, engineered and transported from Germany to Nairobi, Kenya. This was delivered on time and on budget.

Marin County was a different place before the Golden Gate Bridge was completed in 1937, opening Marin to population growth. Most of Marin was undeveloped and unpopulated. The bridge made Marin easily accessible to residents of San Francisco looking for warm, fog-free recreation and summer homes. The Second World War brought an in influx of residents to work in the Sausalito shipyards. After the war, rampant development permanently changed the character of Marin. Fortunately, much of the natural beauty of Marin remains for us to enjoy (see below).

Korca's new market is an environment with the highest trading standards it the city, but it remains empty despite several months having passed since it opened its doors.
Many of the fruit traders refuse to transfer to the new market, complaining that the rent and other costs associated with the market are unaffordable for them.
Traders say they have addressed their concerns to Mayor Sotiraq Filo, but have not received any response.
They warn that if no solution is provided, they will conduct a strike.
“The municipality should consult with us over the design and costs, but instead they just come and take us there, without explaining anything to us. We will go on strike,” said one trader.
The new market has capacity for 120 traders, with the municipality of Korça aiming to turn the city into a gastronomic destination.
But traders, on the other hand, complain that they are constantly being forced to move from place to place, which, according to them, damages their profitability.

“This conference will explore ways to uplift our Black and Brown communities through homeownership which builds individual wealth and will ultimately help Cincinnati create a more vibrant, diverse, resilient, and equitable community. The most significant indicator of systemic racism in the United States is the wealth gap between Blacks and Whites. The disparity in homeownership accounts for a significant part of that wealth gap. The gap in Cincinnati could not be more clear. Black homeownership in Cincinnati is around 31% while white homeownership is around 73% – a 42% gap.
As we seek to address the crisis in affordable housing there is the need to look at this deeper, systemic issue of the wealth gap. This means addressing the question not only in terms of subsidized rental markets but also in terms of homeownership and fair housing.”
Deborah Robb, Director of the Homesteading & Urban Redevelopment Corporation, will be presenting on the panel reviewing Public and Private Partnerships at 12:45. We hope you can join us for the conference!
