The UK-based Colville Estate redevelopment will unfold in seven phases, replacing more than 430 outdated homes with modern, affordable council housing.

Following the completion of phase 1, 2A, and 2B, Kier has been chosen to build phase 2C of the Colville Estate master plan.

This phase will include 93 mixed-tenure homes across two plots, including 52 social rent homes funded by the Mayor of London’s Affordable Homes Programme for returning and local residents in housing need, 19 affordable shared ownership homes for Hackney residents or workers, and 22 privately owned homes.

The 9,500m² development will also include Kier delivering the shell and core for a new energy centre, which will serve the Colville Estate and provide additional capacity for nearby developments.

Kier stated that its expertise in design, decarbonisation, and construction is expected to maximise the benefits for residents while also creating local employment and training opportunities.

Kier Construction London managing director David Rowsell said: “We are delighted to be appointed by London Borough of Hackney in the latest phase of its hugely vital master plan, which will provide much-needed affordable homes in east London.

“The demand for social and affordable housing in east London is very high. We look forward to showcasing our preconstruction and delivery experience, and in-design capability, to deliver vital affordable homes and regeneration in east London.”

In November 2024, Kier secured another UK contract with Cambridgeshire County Council to deliver comprehensive maintenance services across the council’s portfolio of corporate buildings.

The agreement, which extends until 2027 with potential extensions to 2029, covers a wide range of services, including preventative and reactive maintenance, minor project works, and equipment testing and servicing at the properties.
