Skanska has signed a contract with Consolidated Developments to build the St Giles Circus development in the West End of London, UK. The contract is worth GBP 142M, about SEK 1.6 billion, which will be included in the order bookings for Europe in the third quarter of 2017.

The scheme combines retail, leisure and entertainment spaces, commercial offices and residential accommodation across four new buildings and a number of existing buildings. Heritage elements include a retained façade and the refurbishment of listed buildings, some dating back to 1666.
