PROJECT OVERVIEW:

Buildings 1 and 2 of Cambridge Science Park will provide 210,000ft2 of commercial office space for some of the world’s leading technology business and innovative start-ups in the technology and biomedical sectors. These buildings sit in a prominent position at the entrance of the park, a truly inspirational space for high-tech research and development businesses to operate.

KEY REQUIREMENTS:

Landscape Architects, Bidwells-Urban Design Studio, required a surface that was DDA compliant, to create accessible parking areas surrounding the vast office buildings. Green, overflow parking areas, were also required. All paved surfaces were required to be SuDS compliant, and aesthetically pleasing – complimenting the stunning build.

THE SOLUTION:

CORE’s market leading ground stabilisation systems were chosen to compliment this state-of-the-art technology hub. Our Gravel Stabilisation system has been value engineered to be incredibly hard wearing, and virtually invisible once filled – providing the aesthetics of a traditional gravel surface, with none of the pitfalls commonly associated with them. Our Grass Reinforcement grids provided strong, sustainable overflow green parking areas, which blended in with the natural surroundings flawlessly.
