Fire station construction in Manchester

Robertson Construction North West is delivering its first blue light project in Greater Manchester, the new Whitefield Fire Station. This exciting development includes the demolition of the outdated station to make way for a modern, two-storey facility. The new build will feature a revitalised appliance bay, a state-of-the-art training tower, improved landscaping, and upgraded parking facilities. Thoughtfully designed to support the next generation of emergency response.

Sustainability was at the heart of this project from day one. To reduce environmental impact and boost energy efficiency, the design integrates air source heat pumps, 47 solar panels, and introduced a green roof system alongside robust external drainage solutions. Every element was designed with one goal in mind, to a achieve an excellent BREEAM rating.

Robertson is also completing construction of the Blackley fire station, which had reached the halfway mark before it came to an unexpected halt. Stepping in, Robertson North West is resuming the work with renewed momentum, bringing proven expertise and a reputation for assured delivery and quality. 

"The creation of Buchan House will build on the strong working relationship we already have with Aberdeenshire Council and strengthens what we can deliver together for the benefit of everyone in the local community. Delivering a bespoke place of work is designed to cater to the needs of both Aberdeenshire Council and Police Scotland”
