The new Regional Control Centre at Wolverhampton Business Park

The new Regional Control Centre for the West Midlands Region is progressing well at Wolverhampton Business Park.

Recently the Project Team and representatives from the five constituent FRS Control Rooms were able to visit the site before work shopping the internal fabrics and finishes for the finished building.

The current timescale will see the building handed over (Practical Completion) to the new Local Authority Company in December this year at which point the new infrastructure services will then be installed ready for the comprehensive testing of the new National Network.

It is anticipated that the Regional Control Centre will go live during 2009/10.
