Cllr Cameron Holloway, leader of the council, said: “The completion of the new Operations Hub is a milestone for Cambridge City Council and a clear example of how ambitious public projects can be delivered responsibly, collaboratively and sustainably.
“This facility is not just a modern workplace, it represents a step forward in the way we deliver essential services to our residents, bringing our frontline teams together under one roof and supporting our journey to Net Zero.”
“The partnership between the council, VolkerFitzpatrick and Gleeds has shown what is possible when the public and private sectors work hand in hand with a common goal. Winning Project of the Year – East at the National Project Excellence Awards (NPEA) 2025 is also well-deserved recognition for the commitment, innovation and teamwork that made this vision a reality.”
A New Era for Community Services
By bringing together multiple teams – including residential repairs, street cleaning, fleet management, and parks and open spaces – the new Operations Hub creates a single, coordinated base for all community operations. Its modern and landscaped work environment promotes wellbeing, collaboration and productivity and marks the beginning of a new era in the way Cambridge City Council delivers vital public services.
