Making use of its existing building stock, Manchester Airport is relocating its vehicle maintenance workshop to a larger facility on site.

Giving the airport’s servicing and maintenance engineers more working space, allowing for further expansion of the airport’s vehicle fleet and creating a versatile workshop which can accommodate a wide range of specialist airport vehicles, the new workshop has been designed by CCS to include both existing, relocated equipment and brand new workshop equipment which will enhance the team’s servicing and maintenance capabilities.
