GBV, a joint venture comprising Galliford Try and Black & Veatch, has been involved with a flagship flood risk management scheme - Derby's Our City Our River scheme, which combines flood management with urban regeneration. GBV's work has been to rejuvenate areas of Derby city centre underutilised because of insufficient flood protection. The scheme is aimed at safeguarding people and property from flooding. It is also about re-establishing a positive relationship between Derby and its river (the Derwent) by helping realise the economic potential of brownfield sites currently at risk of flooding.
