Here, we take a look back at a fantastic project completed during a challenging Covid lockdown. The Broadmarsh Car Park and Bus Station project was a major success. This mixed-use, multi-storey car park provides 1,200 parking spaces spread across 6 levels. The facility also includes a modern bus station and an interconnecting link bridge. The new structure replaces the previous, outdated car park and bus station.
The design for this project was nothing short of spectacular. SGP Architects created an innovative façade, making great use of various LINIT Glass products. The result was a striking barcode effect on the building’s exterior, which added a unique and eye-catching visual element.
The project utilized several types of glass, each chosen for its specific properties and aesthetic appeal.
These included:
- LINIT 504 (Rough Cast)
- LINIT Magico
- LINIT Clarissimo
Each glass type contributed to the overall design, providing a mix of texture, clarity, and light control.
Despite the challenges of the Covid pandemic, the project proceeded smoothly. This was thanks to the collaborative efforts of all involved. Maple Sunscreening played a key role in providing crucial support throughout construction. Galliford Try also ensured that the site ran efficiently and safely during the peak of the pandemic. Their dedication to keeping operations on track was essential to the project’s success.
In addition to its impressive design, the Broadmarsh Car Park and Bus Station is a significant improvement for the area. It offers much-needed parking and a modern transit hub for commuters. We are proud of the result and grateful to all the teams who contributed to making it happen, even in such a challenging time.
