George Leslie is a leading Civil engineering Contractor committed to delivering high-quality, sustainable construction projects. With a strong safety-first ethos, encompassing “Nothing is so important that we cannot take the time to do it safely,” the company places the well-being of its people at the heart of every operation.
As part of its forward-thinking business strategy, George Leslie is focused on:
The Dunglass Sewer Diversion is a busy construction project with multiple contractor interfaces and a high number of construction plant movements. These factors resulted in the need to identify and implement enhanced on-site safety measures. One such measure in relation to construction plant, was the use of dumpers with an enhanced operator protection system.
George Leslie turned to GAP Hire Solutions, a trusted partner with a proven track record of providing safe, reliable, and efficient equipment.
