Approach

Olive Lane car park - The design intent of the newly constructed car park was to ensure that it blended in with the surrounding landscaped areas and offered a softer visual than traditional construction.  The car park incorporates SUDs and natural material features whilst maintaining a cycle / footway route connecting the hotel / offices with the Olive Lane high street.  Future provision for EV charging and a bike shelter has been installed.

Highwall Park phase 1 - Highwall Park is a public open space that is approx. 1.25km in length, phase 1 of the park is a high quality play space featuring bespoke play equipment including a large tower with bridge, basket swing, log scramble and slides.  The space is designed as a focal point for connecting both ends of the development to lead pedestrian through the open space down to the lakeside.

Drainage remedials - Works involves lining of a legacy S104 foul sewer, correction of manhole defects and bringing the sewer to adoptable standard to ultimately handover the assets to the local water authority for maintenance. 

Highlights

Phase 1 of the park was opened in May 2026 which was very well-received by the community. Phase 2 is currently in construction with more amenities and open space to be delivered.

The car park was opened in January 2026 and has been an effective addition to the site.
