Extending the prison in Ducos

On 31 March, SIMP (VINCI Construction) secured the design-build contract to extend the prison in Ducos (Martinique). Undertaken on behalf of the APIJ (the body responsible for Ministry of Justice real estate), the project will involve creating 160 additional places, refurbishing the kitchens, and the reconstruction of the administrative buildings.
Worth €28m, the works will be carried out on an occupied site. They are due for completion in 2013.
