Time and Attendance Systems Will Streamline Activity on Construction Sites


Advanced time and attendance systems designed to make very good use of CSCS cards for recording attendance are the perfect solutions to help streamline activities on busy construction sites, such as the one that is about to be opened near Colchester, were plans for a major residential scheme comprising 176 homes have been recommended for approval.

The proposed development is located on land north of Wyvern Farm on London Road, Stanway and aims to provide residential units in a mix of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom houses and apartments.

The site is largely flat and the majority comprised agricultural land although a parcel behind 278 and 268 London Road contains former agricultural buildings which have seen alternative uses over the years. These buildings will be demolished to facilitate development of the entire site.

The application proposes a revised set of house types for the 176 units which were granted full planning permission in 2014. The reason for these revisions is that Charles Church wants to build out this part of the site, instead of Persimmon Homes. The revised house types have resulted in minor changes to the layout.

Colchester Borough Council’s planning officers recommended the plans for approval, subject to contributions such as £25,000 towards improvements at the London Road/Stanway Western Bypass roundabout.
