The concrete slab at Universal Studios UK was a hive of activity today, with some notable changes hinting at the next steps in site preparation. A few new containers have appeared on the slab, including one designated for security, another that looks set to become a potential site office, and a third likely intended for plant and equipment storage.
Alongside these additions, a small group of contractors were spotted examining the existing ducting beneath the concrete. This could well be part of the early planning to establish service routes for power, water, and communications. All of these are essential for supporting the construction village that many expect to see taking shape toward the end of 2025.
While these may look like small steps, they are important markers that the groundwork is beginning to shift from planning into physical preparation. Each new container and each inspection brings us a little closer to the enabling works that will officially kick-start the build.
