TDS underway with demolition of Plean Street, Glasgow

TDS have commenced work on the high reach demolition of Plean Street tower blocks in Glasgow with the 777 Ultra High Reach machine.

This demolition, on which C&D are CDM-C, is one of two in Glasgow where Ultra High Reach is the preferred method, the other being the Coleman & Co job at Broomloan Court.

GHA originally awarded the contract to TDS for a double blow down of the towers but subsequently lengthy discussion meant a change in method to high reach. The first block, which sits at the rear of the site, is being demolished first to allow the project team to satisfy themselves as to the way the tower will behave during the demolition process.
