Costain named as Preferred Bidder by Severn Trent in Birmingham 
Costain, in partnership with MWH, has achieved preferred bidder status on a 
potential GBP15 million contract for Severn Trent Water to construct a new 
treated water pumping station at Frankley, one of its major water treatment 
works in Birmingham. 
Frankley water treatment works supplies water to around 1.4 million people in 
Birmingham and the surrounding area, making it a major piece of national 
infrastructure and a vital asset for Severn Trent Water. 
Early works are planned from December 2010 with major construction activities 
expected to be underway in the summer of 2011. The scheme is expected to take 
around two years to complete. 
Andrew Wyllie, Chief Executive of Costain, said: 
"We are delighted to have achieved preferred bidder status for Severn Trent to 
construct a new water pumping station which is in addition to our existing AMP5 
contract. This clearly demonstrates the confidence Severn Trent has in Costain 
MWH's ability to deliver."
