Lucas reaches prestigious industry award shortlist for second year running

Lucas has been shortlisted for the second year in a row for one of the most important awards schemes for specialists in the UK building and construction industry. We won the award last year and we are again in the running for the top prize in the Finishing and Fit Out category of the Specialists Awards 11, organised by Construction News to reward specialists in construction. The final results of the awards scheme will be announced on 22nd March 2011 at a gala dinner in London’s West End. The company is again being judged on its industry performance, training programmes, health and safety record and for its corporate planning and ambitions for the future. The judges will look at some of our most important projects completed last year which include the refurbishment of the biggest public rooms at the Savoy Hotel and a highly unusual public art painting project on a reconstructed road bridge by the Olympic Park in East London. Danny Lucas, Chairman and Managing Director of Lucas, said: “We’re delighted to be shortlisted again for the Construction News Specialist Awards in the finishing and fit out category. Having won the award last year we believe the dedication and professionalism we bring to all aspects of our business is being widely recognised throughout the industry.”
