 Project of the Year – National College for High Speed Rail, Doncaster Campus

The National College for High Speed Rail has been recognised as a pioneering centre of excellence in rail engineering. Bond Bryan’s design takes its inspiration from Doncaster’s historical railway heritage, balancing learner-led academic classrooms with realistic working and fit-out areas and workshops.

With a raft of sustainable features and a BREEAM Excellent rating, this project won both the RIBA Yorkshire Sustainability Award and the overall RIBA Yorkshire Regional Award. 

Project of the Year – Advanced Manufacturing Building, The University of Nottingham

The building brings together a diverse range of innovative research groups, as well as leading industry experts, into one facility at the entrance to the University’s city centre Jubilee Campus.

Now fully operational, this building has received critical commendation across the country, winning the RIBA East Midlands Award for the region.

The annual Education Estates Awards & Dinner will take place at the Mercure Manchester Piccadilly Hotel, on the 16th October.
