Operations Director, Brian Sharkey, and Pre Contracts Manager, Lucie Jones, today visited the Volvo Construction Equipment Support Centre in Immingham to view the company's new plant fleet acquistion.

This investment in proven advanced technology, built on decades of Volvo's experience, will result in the best in class fuel efficiency while not compromising on power – reducing emissions and consumption, while increasing productivity.

In all 20 excavators, a mix of general and compact machines up to 28T in operating weight, will be transferred to our sites across Yorkshire across the coming months.

While our waterlogged sites dry out after the 2015 Christmas downpours, we at Howard Civil Engineering look forward into the New Year and the positive signs of growth in the construction sector.
