Construction industry market analysis reports a more promising outlook for UK construction than previously expected, with summer construction forecasts revised upwards. The optimism is based on the buoyant start to 2002 with increases in orders and output; government's increased spending commitments on health, education, housing and transport; and the more promising outlook for consumer spending. Industrial building is identified as the only weakness. Graphs. Tables.
