TranslateSafe Systems of Work have been developed and signed off for the treatment of the trace asbestos and hydrocarbons within the deep excavations. The site setup arrangements have now been concluded to allow these works to progress. Reassurance air tests will continue to be undertaken on a regular basis to demonstrate that levels are staying within safe limits and relevant standards. All air tests conducted to date have so far yielded compliant results.

Working within the community
We are continuing to work closely with the local community to offer various benefits as the project progresses. Some of our community impact initiatives to date include:
- Social Enterprise Scotland awards sponsors: The Social Enterprise Awards Scotland were back for 2025 recognising the outstanding organisations and individuals making a real difference in communities across Scotland. The awards are an opportunity to showcase the very best of the social enterprise sector, celebrating the vital role social enterprises have in supporting communities, building places, and making a positive impact on our environment and wellbeing. Morgan Sindall are Social Enterprise Scotland Members, and the Ardrossan Community Campus project team sponsored the Environmental Social Enterprise award. Elizabeth Halliday, Head of Responsible Business for Morgan Sindall Construction Scotland, took part in the judging process for the Environmental Social Enterprise Award and was delighted to present this to ‘The Highland Weigh’ on the evening.
- Christmas Appeal: Morgan Sindall’s 2025 Christmas Appeal is well underway, with the Scottish team pledging over 150 donations to gift appeals and foodbanks across the country. We are delighted to be supporting Women’s Aid (Ayrshire) as part of this appeal and look forward to sharing more information about the donations made as we approach Christmas.
