The Construction Plant-hire Association (CPA) has shared the sad news that Tim Watson, its technical consultant, passed away on Friday 3rd April 2020.
Tim had been undergoing treatment for cancer.
Kevin Minton, chief executive of the CPA, said: “We send our deepest condolences to Tim’s wife Judy and their family. This is an especially hard time for them, as they are necessarily isolated from each other.
“Tim’s contribution to the safety of construction plant is almost immeasurable. For over 20 years he worked closely with CPA and the Special Interest Groups, and his clear thinking and professionalism has led to many major improvements in engineering and good practice, which will continue to benefit us for many years,” Kevin continued.
Tim also had many other roles through his consultancy, including acting as expert witness and as a Notified Body. A full obituary will be posted on the CPA website in due course.
