What’s the new colour scheme going to be ?
There is going to be a shield as the main Logo 
And purple and white. Dont know if there be stripes or any other combination yet. Think it has to be finalised. We have already had Livery agents around taking makes and models, photos etc.
Get a better idea when this goes live very soon hopeconstructionmaterials.com/

With the wet weather and now the snow a lot of mixer and tipper owners haven’t earned much money since the middle of December.

things dont look good at the hope plant at four ashes,wolverhampton,done sod all since the merger and they have taken the loading shovel away.batcher and the two drivers based there very worried.
Tarmac had a plant at Sandycroft - listed as Chester and Lafarge had a plant at Saltney also listed as Chester. Both were sold to HCM. Their website only lists 1 site in Chester with no further detail. Has the new company closed one of these plants?

The saltney plant is still open but never has any work on. It was dead before Hope bought it. The lafarge truck based their is on transfer to the ex Tarmac plant in Chester nearly every day.
Hope are supplying a massive job to nuclear fuel in capenhurst until lafrage Tarmac get their site plant up and running in march.
Hope are even slabbibg the yard to the site plant which will take all the work off Hope!
Why you ask?

Its just a total mess
Thanks for the info regarding the Chester plants and Capenhurst. Whats the volume in Capenhurst.
Its an interesting world we are now in!
I wonder how many static plants LAFTAR will open or re open this year or if there is a limit on this number, can they get round it by putting site plants up. The JV must a good number of site plants for erection!.
