Outputs - South East
Total construction output in the South East is expected to increase at an annual average rate of 0.8% between 2010 and 2014, weaker than the UK’s average of 1.7%. This muted growth will be largely due to a relatively stronger performance from the new work sector, with repair and maintenance (R&M) likely to see an annual average decline in output over the period. Employment in the region is predicted to total around 322,900 in 2014, 0.1% lower than 2010’s level.
