Statement Regarding 2013 Thingwall Lane Incident

The tragic incident in 2013, which led to the death of Mr Jones, deeply affected everyone involved.

Our thoughts remain with Mr Jones's family, friends and colleagues, who've waited over four years for this case to be heard.

Although Judge Goldstone has found that the groundworks contractor was more culpable for this tragic accident, we pleaded guilty to breaches of the Health and Safety Act in connection with failings, on our behalf, relating to traffic management.

We fully accept Judge Goldstone's findings.

Health and Safety is our first priority and until this tragic accident we had an unblemished record stretching back over forty years of building.

Immediately following the accident we reviewed our Health and Safety policies and implemented changes to processes and procedures.

We, again, wish to extend our deepest sympathies to Mr Jones's loved ones.
