Ayrshire College has given the 'green light' to delivery of its new Kilmarnock campus after reaching financial close on the £53m project.

Located on the former Diageo site the college will play host to 5,000 students each year and has been procured under a non-profit distributing finance model with C3 Consortium.

This comprises main shareholder 3i infrastructure alongside contractors McLaughlin & Harvey and PIE FS Northern UK Ltd as facilities manager for the duration of the 25 year contract.

Heather Dunk, Principal of Ayrshire College said “This is a historic occasion for Ayrshire College.  The Kilmarnock Campus will totally transform Hill Street and the surrounding area. The innovative campus building will offer world class facilities for students, as well as being an excellent resource for local people, businesses and the wider community in Ayrshire.”

The new college campus will open its doors in 2016.
