Construction News (CN)<\/em> has reached a major digital milestone, surpassing 300,000 followers on LinkedIn.<\/p>\n

The achievement underlines CN<\/em>\u2019s position as the leading voice of the UK construction industry and reflects the enduring influence of its journalism across the sector.<\/p>\n

Since launching on LinkedIn<\/a>, CN<\/em> has built an engaged and diverse community of construction professionals, from site managers and subcontractors to CEOs and policymakers.<\/p>\n

With more followers than its rivals, the platform has become a central space for industry dialogue, breaking news, and debate on the issues shaping the built environment, from infrastructure investment and sustainability to skills and safety.<\/p>\n

CN<\/em> editor Colin Marrs said: \u201cReaching 300,000 followers is a landmark moment for CN<\/em>.\u00a0 There may be a UK B2B magazine with a bigger LinkedIn audience, but we can\u2019t find one.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis milestone is a testament to the trust and loyalty of our readers, and to the hard work of our editorial and audience teams in producing content that matters to construction professionals every day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Data for the past month shows that CN<\/em> is still acquiring more new LinkedIn followers at a faster rate than its nearest industry rivals, leading the pack with 2,140 joining in the past month.<\/p>\n

Marrs said: \u201cWe\u2019re proud to lead the industry conversation and to see that our journalism continues to resonate so strongly.\u201d<\/p>\n

CN<\/em>\u2019s strong social media presence complements its multi-platform offering, which includes digital news, analysis, data, events, and the monthly magazine.<\/p>\n

The publication continues to expand its digital reach through multimedia storytelling, podcasts, and newsletters, reinforcing its role as the essential source of construction intelligence in the UK.<\/p>\n
