A local project with a real purpose, creating spaces that will make a difference for our community.

Whilst this may be a relatively small scheme in comparison to some of the civil engineering projects we deliver, it’s one the BOCE team are incredibly proud to be part of.

We’ve mobilised at Cronton College to deliver a new access ramp that will improve accessibility for students, staff and visitors for many years to come. It’s a reminder that the value of a project isn’t measured by its size or contract value, but by the positive impact it has on the people who use it every day.

Creating safer, more inclusive spaces is something we’re passionate about, and we’re looking forward to delivering another high quality project for our client and end user.

A huge thank you to our teams on site for their continued professionalism and commitment.

Great projects are built on strong foundations, and that starts long before work begins on site.

At BOCE, we believe careful planning, clear communication and attention to detail are what deliver successful civil engineering and groundworks projects.

We’ve been a little quiet on social media lately… and for good reason.

Over the past few months, BOCE has been undergoing a period of organisational restructuring, alongside an intensive recruitment drive to strengthen our team ahead of the commencement of several newly awarded projects.

While our social channels may have been quieter than usual, our teams certainly haven’t.

This video showcases just a selection of the projects we’ve recently completed or are currently delivering across the North West, including works in Widnes, Bromborough, Birkenhead, Runcorn, Frodsham and Didsbury, with additional live projects underway in Chester, Southport and Preston.

As BOCE continues to grow, we’re committed to keeping our clients, partners and wider community updated with the progress we’re making on site and the projects we’re proud to be delivering.

A huge thank you to our clients, supply chain partners and workforce for their continued support during this exciting period of growth.

If you’re planning a project and would like to discuss how BOCE can assist, we’d be delighted to hear from you. Our experienced team is always available to provide advice, support and practical solutions.

Update from Southport

Over the past week, trenching works were undertaken to facilitate the installation of new electrical ducting serving the development. Following installation, the ducts were backfilled and the trenches reinstated, allowing preparation works for the new car parking area to commence.

The images show the progression from electrical trenching and backfilling through to the formation and surfacing of the new parking bays, which are now nearing completion with the tarmac works complete. Whilst this area will ultimately form part of the permanent parking provision, it will initially be used to accommodate temporary welfare cabins, providing welfare facilities for site personnel and subcontractors throughout the next phase of the development.

As temperatures rise across the UK, keeping our teams safe, hydrated, and protected on site remains a top priority at BOCE.

20/05/2026

Road closures are in place, though not for long as BOCE are nearing completion of works at Royal Bolton Hospital. While a relatively small package of works, the completed improvements will make a meaningful difference to the functionality, safety, and overall appearance of the area for staff, visitors, and service users alike. We’re looking forward to handing over next week.

This week marks Mental Health Awareness Week across the UK, and at BOCE, we want to reinforce something we truly believe in:

Mental health is just as important as physical health.

Construction can be a tough industry. Long hours, pressure, deadlines and life outside of work can all take their toll, which is why we believe checking in with each other matters. A simple conversation can make a huge difference.

At BOCE, we’re committed to creating a culture where people feel supported, respected and able to speak openly without judgement. We look out for one another, encourage honest conversations and continue working towards a healthier, more supportive working environment for everyone.
