Docklands scheme to finish by end of 2028

McLaren has won a scheme to build a new data centre in east London.

The scheme is for the first of three 70MW data centre buildings at Ada Infrastructure’s Docklands data centre campus, its first development in Europe.

The 210 MW data centre campus in London’s Royal Docks will form a strategic hub for AI, cloud and hyperscale operations.

Work will finish at the end of 2028

Gareth Peebles, divisional director for McLaren Construction, said: ”McLaren has built a tried-and-tested team of specialists in civil, structural, architectural and MEP packages, infrastructure and data centre fit out.

“We will combine that expertise with our experience of safe and successful delivering within the many constraints of London’s Docklands sites.”

Others working on the job include concrete firm Capital Concrete, piling contractor Keltbray, groundworks firm Gallagher and steel frame contractor William Hare. Menard is also carrying out piling work.

The work is due to finish by the end of 2028.
