Wates Construction<\/a> has been appointed to build a new 200-bedroom hotel by Liverpool City Council<\/a> as part of the city\u2019s major waterfront regeneration project<\/h2>\n

The four-star hotel will form part of Liverpool\u2019s new \u00a350m Cruise Liner Terminal at Princes Dock, which, once built, will accommodate the world\u2019s largest cruise ships.<\/p>\n

The cruise terminal hotel facilities will include coach parking and pick up and drop off provision. Subject to planning approval, work is scheduled to commence in 2019, with completion expected the following year.<\/p>\n

The construction of the new hotel, which was procured\u00a0via Major Works UK, part of Scape\u2019s National Construction framework, is the latest in a series of major announcements regarding the \u00a35bn Liverpool Waters<\/a> regeneration site and sees Liverpool City Council working with landowners Peel Land and Property Ltd.<\/p>\n

The waterfront project will leave a legacy of jobs and skills that will benefit the region for generations to come. As part of the construction of the hotel, Wates has also committed to providing training and employment opportunities for local residents in order to help boost the local economy.<\/p>\n

The commitments include apprenticeship opportunities with Wates and its supply chain partners, and work experience placements for local students.<\/p>\n

The appointment follows a successful first 15 months on Scape\u2019s National Construction framework<\/a> for Wates.<\/p>\n

John Foster, Pre Construction Director for Wates Construction North West, said:\u00a0\u201cLiverpool\u2019s waterfront is one of the most recognisable in the world. Since the 1980s, its regeneration has created a successful and sustainable mixed-use area, which attracts over 5 million visitors to the city each year.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very proud to have been appointed to work on the next phase of this regeneration, which will not only help to boost Liverpool\u2019s economy but will also create jobs and training opportunities for local residents.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Liverpool Cruise Terminal hotel is just one example of the exciting and important projects that we have been appointed to build through Scape\u2019s National Construction framework. As our work on the framework progresses, we look forward to building on our portfolio and maintaining our standing as one of the most trusted partners of government and the public sector.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mayor of Liverpool Joe Anderson said:\u00a0\u201cOur new cruise liner terminal is vitally important to our growing tourism economy and will mean that once again we can welcome the greatest cruise ships in the world to the Mersey.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe construction of this new terminal will mark a new chapter in the city\u2019s maritime future as we create a world-class experience for the cruise companies and their passengers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are working with some of the very best in the engineering industry to deliver this facility to the very highest standards and this new hotel is a vital ingredient to the overall experience.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m delighted a company of the reputation of Wates have been appointed to deliver a world-class hotel on our World Heritage waterfront.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mark Robinson, Chief Executive of the\u00a0Scape Group, said:\u00a0\u201cThe construction of the new \u00a330m Liverpool Cruise Terminal hotel is a flagship project in the regeneration of the city\u2019s waterfront<\/a>. People are increasingly recognising Liverpool as a destination, and the cruise terminal is often a visitor\u2019s first entrance to the city. The additional money that tourism is bringing into Liverpool is vital for boosting the local economy and there is clear evidence of the city transforming into a major cultural hub.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur framework ensures that the social value which will be created as a product of the ongoing works will be felt throughout the local community, not only during the project but long after its completion. Training and employment opportunities for local residents will be created, alongside work experience placements for college students and a number of full-time jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n
