LONDON, March 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Waterman Group is pleased to announce confirmation of a two-year extension to its existing partnering term contract with London Borough of Bexley until September 2019.

The contract is an important part of the long-term regeneration framework of the Borough's growth strategy for its economic, environmental and social regeneration.
