The project capital value, inclusive of VAT, is estimated at 200m GBP reflecting an accommodation requirement of approximately 67 200 square meters split approximately 77 % at City Campus (Cathedral Street) and approximately 23 % at Riverside Campus (Thistle Street). The project may also include a Halls of Residence.
The Scottish Government, through the Scottish Funding Council, has confirmed the terms under which it is prepared to provide financial support to the College in relation to this project and the College is confident and content that these terms can be satisfied. The College reserves the right to consider alternative financing, funding and/or contractual arrangements to support the delivery of the project.
Under this project the NPD company will be required to support the College’s economic and social regeneration objectives. Accordingly, contract performance conditions may relate in particular to social and environmental considerations.
