Recent Study On Construction in the UK - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2020 - Researchmoz

Researchmoz added Most up-to-date research on "Construction in the UK - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2020" to its huge collection of research reports.

There is still a great deal of uncertainty on the full implications of the UKs exit from the European Union (EU) on the construction industry, but the view of Timetrics Construction Intelligence Center (CIC) is that there are major downside risks to growth, with little or no upside during the early part of the forecast period (20162020).

In June 2016, the UK held a referendum and decided to leave the EU. It means the UK will be the first member country to do so. The move is expected to lead to an economic slowdown in the UK accompanied by a fall in the value of its currency.

Timetric expects the UKs construction industry to suffer a contraction in output value in 2016 in real terms (constant prices). This reflects both weakness in the industry in the first half of the year ahead of the Brexit referendum, and the expected slowdown in the second half as investment plans are put on hold during economic uncertainty.

However, the construction industry is expected to recover by the end of forecast period. Nevertheless, the pace of growth will remain sluggish in the latter part of the forecast period (20182020), averaging 1.7% a year in real terms.

The industry is expected to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.82% over the forecast period in real terms, compared to 1.39% during the review period (20112015).

Although the real outlook for the UKs construction industry is expected to be weak, there will be some support from investment in residential, infrastructure and institutional building projects.

Flagship government programs such as the National Infrastructure Plan (NIP), Priority School Building Program (PSBP) and National Health Service (NHS) program are expected to support industry growth. The governments plan to construct affordable homes for the low-income population, a renovation program for old school buildings and the replacement of aging infrastructure will also provide some support.

Key Highlights
With an aim to replace aging and inefficient energy infrastructure, the government is focusing on the development of new electricity infrastructure projects across the country. According to the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC), 20% of the current total electricity generation capacity in the country will be closed by 2020, while demand for electricity is expected to double by 2050. Accordingly, to meet the growing energy demand, the government is planning to invest GBP65.0 billion (US$107.0 billion) to improve electricity infrastructure by 2021.

To modernize the countrys rail network, the government is focusing more on rail infrastructure under the NIP 20142019. Under this program, the government has allocated GBP38.0 billion (US$62.5 billion) to enhance the rail network connectivity and capacity across the country by 2019.

The government is making efforts to increase the funding for the implementation of the affordable housing program. As a part of the move, the government announced buy-to-let stamp duty surcharges in November 2015, effective from April 2016. The new law imposes an additional 3.0% on the existing stamp duty land tax. The government is planning to utilize a proportion of the additional tax collection to double its budget allocation towards the affordable housing plan.

The implementation of Brexit is expected to benefit the country in financial budgetary terms. According to the EU, each member country is entitled to pay an annual membership fee, which will be accumulated in the central EU budget. Accordingly, the UK makes a net contribution of GBP7.1 billion (US$11.1 billion) to the EU annually. Supporters who voted in favor of Brexit propose the government to utilize this amount for the implementation of any national flagship program such as NHS that would benefit the countrys population.

The UKs construction industry is currently reliant on foreign labor from within the EU, owing to insufficient numbers of new and existing skilled domestic workers. Ahead of the referendum, the Chartered Institute of Building warned that tight regulations of migration would damage construction activity in the UK. Reduced access to skilled workers from the EU could exacerbate the skills shortage, potentially delaying projects and increasing labour costs.
