We’re proud to announce that Nuway have been chosen to support the £330m refurbishment of the ‘Our Town Hall’ project which will see the historic Grade 1 listed Manchester Town Hall protected for future generations.
We have been appointed by NG Bailey on behalf of Manchester City Council to deliver the technical fit out of this landmark building. Our extensive works package includes installation of a building wide Audio Visual and control, together with a digital audio processing backbone which will enable the technical teams to host various broadcast and live events within the public spaces of the grand Town Hall.
The Town Hall is more than 140 years old and, while it remains structurally sound, was showing its age with many elements reaching the end of their natural lifespan. It was closed in January 2018 to enable work to begin on the Our Town Hall project and will re-open during 2024. The refurbishment project will not only transform users’ experience of the building putting more of its civic treasures on show and making it easier to get around, it will also protect the building for future generations to enjoy and reduce the building’s carbon footprint and energy costs.
Nuway have worked closely with Manchester City Council within the Town Hall for many years on projects including the main Council Chamber conference system fit-out and several large Committee room installations, during this time we have developed an excellent working relationship with the MCC team.
Danny Hird, Nuway General Manager said “Nuway are delighted to have been trusted with this prestigious contract and look forward to delivering state of the art facilities within this much loved listed building for future generations to enjoy. Our experience of working within this building over the last 7 years will be instrumental in enabling us to deliver this project.”
