As well as providing guided tours of the project site and direct contact with engineers and sub-contractors, BAM UK & Ireland and PKC offered a fun, family event for children that included bird box painting, an Amery Plant simulator, and a chance to meet Spot the dog, a robotic dog fitted with in-built laser scanners.
We were delighted to see so many local residents join us in our first Open Day event.

The Lighthouse for Perth, a local non-profit service offering crisis support for anyone aged 12+ who is at risk of self-harm or suicide, benefited from fundraising on the day, which reached over £800. This amount was added to the online Silent Auction to bring a total of £5,403 for the charity. Innes Mackintosh, Community Engagement Manager for BAM UK & Ireland at CTLR, commented, “We were delighted to see so many local residents join us in our first Open Day event. The feedback we received was incredibly positive with people from across the area interested in finding out more about the project. “I’d like to thank everyone who came out to join in, and to give a big shout out to our subcontractors who have donated so generously to the online auction and on-the-day tombola in aid of The Lighthouse for Perth. Ensuring that CTLR leaves a meaningful legacy for local families is a key aim of the project and we are proud to be supporting such a worthwhile cause.”
