T1 CONCRETE PANELS

MAY 2015

T1 Concrete Panels

Pre-cast concrete panels for our T1 project at Kings Cross are currently being manufactured at the Techrete factory in Ireland with installation of the first panels due to commence in the next week. Here are some ‘as struck’  images of the capital panels that will be fitted to the top of the piers.

PARK HOSPITAL GRANTED OUTLINE PLANNING

JANUARY 2013

Park Hospital Granted Outline Planning

The development of Park Hospital has been granted Outline Planning Consent by the Oxford City Council. The project will redevelop the existing Park Hospital site into additional biomedical research facilities for Oxford University’s Old Road Campus.

The campus is one of the foremost biomedical research campus’ in the UK. As part of the University’s vision to remain a world leader in this field, the redevelopment of Park Hospital will provide an additional 48,000 square metres of accommodation for research and laboratory facilities.

The site is located in a challenging planning environment as it is adjacent to a local wildlife site, connected to the Lye Valley, a site of special scientific interest. Wide ranging consultation took place during the pre-planning phases of the application, on account of the ecological sensitivities of the site and to ensure that the development would benefit the local area.
