Teamwork for police HQ in Charleroi

31 July 2011 - New contracts - Belgium

CFE (VINCI Construction) has been awarded the contract for the design, construction, financing and maintenance, for 25 years, of the new police headquarters building in Charleroi. Designed by Ateliers Jean Nouvel and MDW Architecture, the 42,000 sq. metre building (comprising two wings and a 20-storey tower block) will also house a rehearsal room for the Charleroi Danses choreographic centre.

This project represents an investment of €70.5m. It will involve Bageci and CFE Brabant (two CFE entities) for the works, which will start in March 2012, and take 31 months to complete, as well as Nizet Entreprise and Druart (again, CFE companies), which will supply the maintenance, worth an annual €1.3m.
