Work underway on demolition of famous Rolls Royce Plc factory in Bristol.

Buckingham Group Contracting has started work on a significant demolition contract for Rolls Royce Plc to clear the 27 hectare East Works Site at Filton in Bristol. The contract is being undertaken as part of a property consolidation exercise for Rolls Royce Plc and the project valued at in-excess of £1m includes extensive asbestos removal, decommissioning, dismantling and demolition works which are programmed to be completed by the end of the Summer.
