Balfour Beatty is to employ modular construction to build a new covid-19 testing laboratory in Royal Leamington Spa, Warwichshire.

Work on the 225,000 sq ft facility for NHS Test and Trace, called the Rosaling Franklin Laboratory, is already underway.

The lab is expected to add hundreds of thousands of tests to the UK’s daily covid-19 testing capacity.

Works include the construction of a series of laboratory ‘lines’ within the facility as well as the associated welfare and waste management facilities.
