Local students have been given a first-hand look at Hereford's new transport hub.
Year 10 pupils from Kingstone High School visited the £10 million project, which is currently under construction and led by McPhillips on behalf of Herefordshire Council.
The visit followed a classroom presentation on careers in construction, delivered through a partnership between McPhillips and The Marches Careers Hub.
Students interested in the industry were then invited for an on-site tour, where they learned about the project, site safety and the range of jobs available in construction.

Matt Link, stakeholder manager at McPhillips, said: "They seemed really interested and I think when the Transport Hub is complete, they’ll look back on this visit with a real insight into the work involved in construction projects."
Charlene Husband, careers adviser at Kingstone Academy Trust, said: "This opportunity provided our students with a valuable experience of a real-world construction setting, gaining greater knowledge of the different careers within the construction sector."
Work on the Hereford Transport Hub began last August.
Once complete, the hub will connect bus, train and taxi services.
