To be eligible, a project must have been completed between 1 June 2011 and 23 September 2012. Anyone involved can make an entry - the architect that helped develop the idea, the contractor, the customer or anyone else that played a part in the development or project.
The winners of the construction categories will be entered into the relevant category of the 2013 LABC East Anglia Regional Awards unless the council is notified accordingly.
The closing date for entries is Sunday 23 September 2012.
Councillor Peter Hiller, Cabinet Member for Housing, Neighbourhoods and Planning for Peterborough City Council, said: "These awards provide a great platform for residents and businesses to demonstrate their excellent work. It offers the opportunity to create and display attractive and high quality places for people to live and work in the city. It is also a chance to showcase the innovation in sustainable design and construction which goes into current building projects."
Simon Machen, Head of Planning Services for Peterborough City Council, said: "We are looking for anyone who has been involved in the planning or construction of a building project which has been completed since June 2011 to enter and tell the city about their successes. There is rarely the opportunity to recognise and give credit to the extensive range of talent in this industry so awards like these are really encouraging.”
