HMP Addiewell
A consortium* led by Kalyx signed a contract in June 2006 with the Scottish Prison Service to design, construct, manage and finance this new 700-place prison for the Scottish Prison Service at Addiewell, near West Calder in West Lothian.
Mr Herb Nahapiet OBE, Chairman of Kalyx said: "We and
our consortium partners have worked closely with the Scottish
Prison Service to produce an operationally-designed prison within
which it will be possible to address offending behaviour and to
contribute to the Scottish Executive's efforts to deliver a safer
Scotland".
The design of HMP Addiewell is modern and compact; incorporates a
number of innovative aspects; and has been constructed to a high
standard of physical security.
Accommodating up to 796 male prisoners, the new prison is on target to open in December 2008.
A number of jobs have been created across a broad spread of skills and disciplines. If you would like to see what career opportunities are available please go to our vacancies page, or see more details on our news page.
* Kalyx is the operator, Interserve Project Services is
the design build contractor and the senior lending bank is Royal
Bank of Scotland.
