SPANISH infrastructure company Ferrovial, through its British construction business, has secured a new £230m tunnelling contract in the UK for National Grid.
Under the contract, Ferrovial’s UK business will work on the Grain to Tilbury electricity infrastructure upgrade project, which will start in early 2025 and finish by Q1 2029.
The Grain to Tilbury project involves upgrading electricity infrastructure by replacing the 1960s Thames Cable Tunnel beneath the Thames between Tilbury and Gravesend.

Why not reinstate the ferry service between the 2 towns instead.
Why couldn’t a British company do this work because it’s too difficult and HS3 has sucked up all the workers etc etc nothing fit for purpose in the UK your country will soon be at the bottom of the pile ..no incentives.. gross taxation..lousy health service etc etc emigrate to west Canada
Yeah great, how is this creating jobs, outsourcing the work to other countries who have a workforce, very nice to see the workers are cared about in england
