At Barking Riverside, principal contractor Careys Civil Engineering is helping to transform a 443-acre brownfield site into a new London residential community.

As part of our on-going efforts to reduce our carbon footprint, Seneca Resource Recovery has recently invested in two new environmentally friendly hooklift vehicles. These specially designed vehicles are capable of meeting London’s newly applied Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) regulations.

At Careys, we’re passionate about supporting all our employees to help them reach their maximum potential. We believe that it's not only what you learn that’s crucial, but also how you learn it.

At Careys, our employees are the very heart of our business. Through their continuous efforts, commitment to excellence and passion we've been able to tackle and overcome some of the industry's toughest project challenges.

The truth is that civil engineering has helped to build everything around us – all of the structures that make our lives easier, such as offices, schools and power supply grids.

Over the past seven days, employees from across our site and office teams embraced Volunteers' Week by devoting their time and effort towards a range of different charitable causes.

The 30-acre, £1.5bn Elephant and Castle Regeneration in south London represents one of Europe’s largest city centre construction schemes. Once completed, it will offer 3,000 new homes, more than 50 new shops, several restaurants, a new park and significant infrastructure improvements.

The former Ford Stamping and Tooling Operations plant in Dagenham has been a significant part of the economic, social and industrial landscape of the area for over 70 years. Once a substantial provider of employment, housing and infrastructure – this industrial site left its mark on the historical record of the area and became widely known as part of Dagenham’s cultural heritage.

In celebration of our 50th anniversary this year, Careys Foundation has set our biggest charitable cycling challenge yet – both in terms of mileage and fundraising.

Careys is playing a critical role in the construction of Woodsmith Mine, acting as principal contractor on the early building phases of the mine’s main shafts.

At Careys, we are committed to consistently delivering projects of the highest standards, while simultaneously taking the utmost care of the health and safety of everyone on our sites.

As part of Careys’ role as principal contractor for the initial phases of the ambitious North Yorkshire polyhalite project near Whitby, North Yorkshire, worth over £3.2bn, we have adopted a number of innovative techniques. These will help us to most effectively, efficiently and safely construct several of the mine’s most complex and vital components.
