Kier purchases Buckingham Group’s rail division

Kier has agreed to acquire substantially all the rail assets of Buckingham Group Contracting Limited, which has gone into administration.
The £9.6 million acquisition will strengthen Kier’s position in the UK rail market, with projects spanning the country. Once the transaction is completed, Buckingham Group’s rail division will become part of the Kier Transportation business, which designs, builds and maintains infrastructure for the highways, rail, aviation and ports sectors.
