Award Winners
We have had an amazing start to the summer with winning the Ground Engineering (GE) Award on 4 May. We then were Highly Commended at the annual Institution Of Civil Engineers (ICE) awards. View our 'Awards' section to see details of our Award winning projects.
Mobilisation of Fleet Pond
Mobilisation of the floating plant and equipment to Fleet Pond was carried out in February 2012 using a large crane lift from the Station car park due to the access restrictions. Modular pontoons were assembled that would carry the long reach excavators for the dredging and lake island construction works. A large audience had gathered as this marked a significant milestone for the Pond, in particular the hard work of the Fleet Pond Society, so the success of this day was really welcome.
Award Winning Daniels Mill
WM Longreach are delighted to announce that they are the Winners of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) West Midlands Geotechnical Project Award 2010 for Daniels Mill Slope Stabilisation Works.
Sennen Cove – RNLI Emergency

Daniels Mill Earthworks
Further to the Summer 2007 flood events, a landslip occurred adjacent to the Severn Valley Railway, impacting on the historic 'Daniels Mill'. This historic Mill is sited in a heritage and conservation area and works have recently started on the project.
