Construction group Galliford Try said it was part of a joint venture that had won a 180m pound waste water contract.
The contract to upgrade and extend Liverpool Waste Water Treatment Works was awarded by United Utilities Group to a team which also includes Costain Group and Atkins (WS).
The project involves the construction of a two-storey sequential batch reactor plant in the disused Wellington Dock, as well as upgrades to the existing works in the adjacent Sandon Dock to the north of Liverpool city centre.
