BAM progresses construction on Landmark Higher Education Facility at ATU Letterkenny
Construction is well underway on the new Library, IT and Education Building at Atlantic Technological University’s (ATU) Letterkenny campus, Donegal, Ireland, with BAM proud to be the main contractor of this transformative project. This project is one of five new buildings being delivered in phase two of the Higher Education Public Private Partnership (PPP) Programme.
Although works commenced during the summer, the project was formally launched by Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, James Lawless TD, who turned the sod on site alongside representatives from ATU and BAM.
The 5,100m² facility will consist of a library and various learning resource spaces, general and specialised teaching spaces, ICT laboratories, administration space and ancillary space. In conjunction with decanted space elsewhere on campus, the new building will increase capacity of ATU at Letterkenny by circa 600 students, supporting the university’s continued growth and regional impact.
