Yes, but 59 weeks works on the basis of everything going like clockwork, with no hitches in design or tender, no delays with tender approval and no delays in getting suitable people on site which is difficult, given how busy the market is at present. Builders are making more money from building offices and hotels than from housing. It does not allow for long lead-in periods for builders, for example.
