Building Works Progress – 1 year on

It’s now been a year since Kier Construction got to work on transforming Paisley Museum. During that time, significant progress has been achieved on the complex new entrance structure, internal remodelling, and roof works.

We are delighted to say that the internal remodelling work is almost complete and will enable better accessibility and navigation throughout the Museum. Our contractors have also worked on the new West extension. The picture below (left) was taken from the Observatory viewing balcony and gives a clear outline of the future museum extension.

From August onwards, important changes on-site will be visible from the High Street, as the structural steelwork will be installed for the West extension. The new building will host the Café and Garden Gallery. The Observatory, part of the museum visitor experience for the first time, is currently wrapped in scaffolding as work is being undertaken to assess its roof and stonework.
