Key Highlights
• Residential construction was the largest market with 36.5% of the overall industry value, and recorded a CAGR of 0.12% during the review period. The residential construction market valued GBP44.6 billion (US$71.6 billion) in 2011.
• Despite a demand for affordable housing, the housing market is undersupplied. Developers are reluctant to invest as buyers are not able to obtain the necessary credit.
• The Olympic games provided a requisite boost to the UK construction industry during a period where the housing industry was slowing. This boost, however, was temporary, and not sufficient to contribute significantly to the declining residential construction market. The Olympic quarter is to be converted into a business and residential area with around 40,000 homes built in the vicinity. This will relieve pressure on local housing in London and provide much needed employment.
• Cautious consumer spending has led to a subdued retail sector. A new retail model is emerging which consists of large flagship stores in prime locations combined with smaller stores in satellite locations.
• Budget cuts for both the education and the health sector will limit the growth of the institutional construction category. The present coalition government has cancelled the GBP55 billion Building Schools for the Future (BSF) program that was started in 2004 and introduced the GBP2 billion Priority School Building Program.
