ABOUT US
B & W Tunnelling was founded in October 1985 and has since established itself as one of the UK's leading specialist tunnelling contractors.
In the early years B & W's reputation was gained from our vast experience of using traditional hand excavation techniques, constructing tunnels from 900mm to 2100mm diameter.
In 1999 we decided to step into the 21st century and became mechanised.
By 2002 B&W owned one of the largest fleets of mechanised pipejacking equipment in the UK.
In one of the U.K.’s most extensive infrastructure developments, the Milford Haven Gas Connection Project extends over 300 km (190 mi) across South Wales. The pipeline was created to deliver liquefied natural gas (LNG) from a port at Milford Haven, providing up to 20% of the U.K.’s natural gas for owner National Grid. B&W Tunnelling were the primary contractor for the project that commenced in 2007. Read more
In 2010 we became contractors for the £125m West East Link Main pipeline scheme for United Utilities which is now nearing completion and is seen as one of the most ambitious pipeline projects undertaken within the North-West of England. For further details...
Moving forward, B&W Tunnelling are delighted to have won a contract as part of the London 2012 Olympic Games to provide drainage and buried services for the primary foul sewer and Pumping Station.
