In several areas they are not up to the standard required by the University, and are affecting the perception of the institution by Staff, Students and visiting members of the public.With this in mind a programme of upgrading works has been proposed to hit the areas in the most need of improvement.It is the intention of the Client to appoint a Principal Contractor to take the designs through to completion and to accept the full design liability for the projectThe sites are spread across two buildings, two campuses, Grove and Bay Library. Each of these buildings have a different role within the campus and have their own individual challenges.Grove is one of the large teaching spaces on Singleton Campus, generally dealing with teaching Medical students. The facilities are located on the First Floor, in close proximity to large teaching spaces and have original fixtures from when the building was constructed.Bay Library is one of the main student spaces on Bay Campus.
