BURS constructs P542m head office in CBD

The foundation for the headquarters, estimated to cost P452 million, was laid on Tuesday.  The first phase of the project, which includes bulk earthworks, has already been completed at a cost of P27 million. The second phase entails the provision of a modern office complex comprising a three-storey basement, and eight floors of corporate headquarters tower block. There will also be two three storey office blocks and a three levels ancillary block, which will house a cafeteria, gymnasium and conference rooms.

The new complex has been planned to house all the BURS head office divisions and the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Board (PPADB). It is hoped the BURS headquarters will ease the provision of its services to taxpayers, strategically located within the CBD.
