CONSTRUCTION PERFORMANCE BY SECTOR

摘要

The value of contracts awarded in the infrastructure sector increased in March with the total value awarded £1.6bn based on a three-month rolling average. This is 49.5% higher than the previous month and 90.4% higher than March 2014. In the three months to March the total value of contract awards was £3.8bn based on a three-month rolling average. This is 0.8% higher than the previous three months and 2.5% higher than the same period in 2014. This indicates a significant improvement on recent month's performance in the sector and is potentially a boost to overall growth in the construction industry.
