The first British construction delegation to post-Gaddafi Libya set out for Libya this week, Building reported. British Expertise lead the expedition which is thought to include 10 of the organisation’s members including Kier, Halcrow, Mott Macdonald, Capita Symonds, KBR, Ernst & Young, GMW Architects and Conseco International.
