Galliford Try plc, the housebuilding and construction Group, has announced this morning that its infrastructure business Morrison Construction has, in joint venture with AECOM Design Build, been awarded two streams of Yorkshire Water's AMP5 framework worth approximately £150 million over five years.

This appointment is another significant step in the renewal of our framework agreements with our key water clients and reinforces our position as one of the sector's leading contractors."
