Cycle Park at Havant Station

In line with the latest ‘green’ initiative for the region, our brief from South West Trains, via architects Robinson, Kenning & Gallagher, was to design and build an extensive new bicycle parking facility.

The building, measuring 21m x 5m, had to be designed and finished to the high standards imposed by Railways Regulations and, being adjacent to the main platform, needed to be bright and welcoming.

A tapered trellis design was used with aluminium profile cladding on the roof area combined with mesh and perforated steel panels on the sides.

Reaction from users has been very positive with over a hundred cycles being accommodated at peak periods.

All of our Fordingbridge Specialist Structures can be designed and constructed as Mass Transit Structures for various applications.

Our highly versatile tension fabric canopies can be constructed in almost any shape or size. The BBC have a cantilevered tension fabric canopy which is used as a canopy for sheltering studio audiences awaiting entry to shows.

A quadruple conic tension fabric canopy provides an ideal sheltered bus interchange at East Midlands Airport.

A cantilevered bus shelter is an ideal all weather waiting area for school children in a Surrey school.

So for a diversity of applications including

Bike sheds
Bus shelters
Bus interchange areas
Waiting areas for theatre audiences or school children

Fordingbridge canopies & walkways, insulated buildings, tension fabric structures, or indeed a combination of two or three can prove the ideal design and build solution.
