LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Balfour Beatty has completed two disposals, the infrastructure specialist confirmed on Thursday, raising nearly £26m.
The firm, which finances, develops, builds and maintains infrastructure projects worldwide, has sold its 49.5% interest in UBB Waste (Gloucester) Holdings - which owns a waste facility in the south west - to Urbaser Investment.

It has also sold its 50% interest in the Moretti housing project, in Birmingham, Alabama, to Henssler Capital.
