News: Construction

TJ Transport is supplying Butser rock chalk to engineering groundworks company BCT Services (South) Ltd who have been tasked with creating a noise bund to shield Worthing residents from the neighbouring A27.

TJ has started the reinstatement of Butser Quarry following five years of quarrying at the site. This is the first phase of the reinstatement - there are still several years of quarrying to take place -  but once refilled, the whole site will be returned to arable land.

Work will soon be commencing at Test Valley Golf Club, after TJ’s golf course construction team spent a number of weeks over the summer preparing the site ready for the work. This involved creating a compound for the plant and materials to be stored, installing site infrastructure and building temporary roads in and out of the construction area.

TJ Transport’s golf course construction team has spent the summer readying the site at Basingstoke Golf Club so that improvement works can commence in September. 

TJ Transport recently secured two Constructionline accreditations, which demonstrate our high credibility as a company, as well as our compliance with health and safety regulations and relevant industry standards.

Work can now commence on the planned project at Test Valley Golf Club, following permission being granted at Hampshire County Council's March planning meeting. TJ was awarded the contract to improve and upgrade facilities on the golf course in Summer 2021 so it’s great news that the project can now get underway.

TJ Transport is currently working on-site at Skylark Golf & Country Club, undertaking a project to build a new bund. This is required for safety reasons but has the added benefit of being aesthetically pleasing as well as more challenging for the golfers.

TJ has been awarded a contract to upgrade and improve the driving range at Basingstoke Golf Club. The work is due to commence autumn/winter 2022 and is expected to take around a year to complete.

TJ Transport won a contract to assist with haulage and muckaway services for a project to resurface one of Downend in Bristol’s busiest roads last month.

Stoneham Golf Club has been selected as one of three finalists for the Greenkeeping Project of the Year at the BIGGA Awards 2022. These awards recognise that high standards and dedication are vital to the success of any golf course or championship and they are keen to reward BIGGA members who are demonstrating innovation.
