The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) presented O’Brien Contractors Ltd with a prestigious President’s RoSPA Gold award, in recognition of our robust commitment to health and safety.

RoSPA recognises and celebrates excellent health and safety practices and associated commitment to protecting lives – industry wide and internationally. O’Brien are proud to have secured the Gold Award for 11 consecutive years.

O’Brien Contractors Ltd held a well-attended Groundbreaking Ceremony on Friday 17th May 2024 to commemorate the commencement of restorative works at Staveley – for Chesterfield Canal Trust.

The prestigious event was captured live via our drone (footage below) and by Look North – BBC: https://youtu.be/rpD-NgcNzoA.

We were also delighted to see the Article published by Derbyshire Times: https://www.derbyshiretimes.co.uk/news/environment/were-incredibly-proud-contractors-break-ground-on-new-bridge-for-chesterfield-canal-restoration-4636343 and Chesterfield Canal Trust’s Press Release: https://chesterfield-canal-trust.org.uk/canal-restoration-gets-underway-in-staveley/.

O’Brien are looking forward to seeing the long term benefits that our restorative work will bring to wildlife, the local community and visitors.

O’Brien Contractors Limited continue to secure new contracts, resulting in ongoing expansion of our fleet and plant. Our continued progression is achieved through partnership working within communities where we successfully deliver our construction activities and ESG.
