The student accommodation provider will work alongside Watkin Jones on delivery of the scheme.

This will form part of the Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus which will open this year, serving mainly postgraduate students who only study for a year.

The new development will feature 1,143 sq m of amenity space and target BREEAM Excellent and EPC A ratings.

UPP is scheduling completion for 2030, whereupon it will be responsible for day-to-day management and operation of the buildings.
