UK: HeidelbergCement’s subsidiary Hanson is supplying its Regen GGBS (ground granulated blastfurnace slag) cement replacement for a project to build a new tidal barrier across the New Cut River in Ipswich. The Euro24m project is being managed by the Environment Agency to protect properties at risk of flooding.
The work is being carried out by VBA, a joint venture between VolkerStevin, Boskalis Westminster and Atkins, and is due to be fully operational by September 2018.
