Chevron assists with BBC One’s DIY SOS

Published on 15 Sep 2017

Chevron provides Traffic Management for the recent filming of BBC One’s DIY SOS: ‘The Big Build Veterans’ Special.

Chevron supplied TM Operatives during the filming of the two-part programme which helped to transform a number of houses for Armed Forces Veterans, as well as landscaping the East Manchester streets they belong to.

TV shows have redecorated rooms, refreshed gardens, and renovated whole houses, but on this occasion the DIY SOS team took on the challenge of an entire street. Nick Knowles and his team, with the help of hundreds of hardworking volunteers spent almost two weeks transforming the street in Newton Heath for Army Veterans and their families.

The finished project due to be shown on TV screens this month will also include a royal visit by both Princes William and Harry, who were invited along for sneak preview.

Thank you for your help. The works to the bridge were completed and great teamwork from both crews. I had a good view from the bridge and was very impressed by their work. Always said it....TM is an art form!

Please accept our thanks your team’s efforts on this project. Chevron have been brilliant, nothing has been too much to ask of you and we have delivered to programme despite the complexities of working at these junctions. Look forward to working with you in the future, I think it’s forged a good relationship between us.

Can I please express my thanks on behalf of everyone at Kier for the exceptional aptitude and attitude shown by one of your site teams who were engaged in a recent local community project. As with any town centre closure there were some ‘challenges’ thrown at the crew but their attitude and commitment to the safety of the children, parents and support groups was second to none. It’s lovely to be able to write this reference to your colleagues, please pass on my most sincere thanks.

Another great success for Area 3. To turn this around in such a short space of time due to the nature of the repair and the location is a credit to you and your teams. Well done!

A404 Resurfacing

Could I say a big thank you to yourselves and to all your crews which were on site at the A404 Resurfacing scheme last night. I have spoken to the Tarmac site supervisor from the Chieveley depot this morning who was very appreciative of how helpful and how good it was to work with the crew that was on site.
