Gladstone Biomass Terminal provides a new dockside biomass terminal at the Port of Liverpool, to support the EU's largest decarbonisation project at Drax's Selby power station. A fully automated bulk-handling facility capable of processing 3 million tonnes of wood pellets a year, storing these on site in concrete silos then transporting to Drax by rail.

Liverpool2 is one of the UK's largest private sector infrastructure projects, developed in response to changing patterns and shipping trends towards the use of 'mega' ocean-going container ships. It required the construction of a deep water quay 854m long and 30m deep with an adjacent container terminal of around 16 hectares reclaimed from the mouth of the River Mersey.

Carters Bridge was originally a two span overbridge made of steel beams supporting a timber deck. It was understrength and needed replacing and also provided the only means of access for a farmer between two sections of his land. A 39m single span solution was constructed parallel to the existing bridge. This minimised the disruption to the farmer as the new bridge could be built while maintaining access using the old bridge.

Revealing the Roch is a £4.2m heritage led regeneration scheme, completed in 2016, which restored the iconic 14th Century Rochdale Bridge.
The project restored views of the bridge, protects historic buildings from flood risk, transformed the town centre with an attractive public realm, improved pedestrian connectivity and, by restoring an important heritage asset, adds to Rochdale's appeal as a tourist destination.
"A true example of precision and engineering excellence, that was second to none."
The tunnel was constructed from each side of the river (Birkenhead and Liverpool), and when the bores met in the middle they were only 25mm out.
At the time of construction, it was the world's longest underwater tunnel. An estimated 35,000 vehicles now use the tunnel each day. The tunnel entrances, and ventilations stations are Grade II listed.
To tackle diversity issues, ARUP set out a three year equality, diversity and inclusion strategy.
Arup's approach is based on the concept that people should be valued as individuals for reasons related to their business interests, as well as for moral and social reasons.
When people feel valued, when they are treated with dignity and respect, they flourish and this benefits everyone and the business.
Arup firmly believes that encouraging diversity and inclusion in their teams enables them to provide better solutions for their clients.
