GREENFORD QUAY - PHASE 1B

Greenford Quay is a vibrant mixed-use neighbourhood on the banks of the historic Grand Union canal in West London. Phase 1B is the first phase of the overall scheme, consisting of the central square at the heart of the development and including the canal-side amphitheatre, already a key attraction for residents and public alike. The contractor designed, supplied and installed all works to the public realm. Key hard elements of the project included extensive civil and structural design and installation; water features; external lighting; CCTV and data systems; linear and below ground drainage; paving and cladding detailing; masonry design and sampling; and road and footpaths for adoption by the London Borough of Ealing.

The contractor delivered the majority of these works in-house with its own teams, whilst also fulfilling its duties as principal contractor. Specialist sub-contractors were used for the water features, irrigation, surfacing and resin bound gravel. Working diligently to design, supply and install the ambitious design to the highest quality, the contractor sourced a huge range of bespoke materials with its supply chain partners, working very closely with the client and architect to fully realise their joint ambitions for the scheme. This shared determination and focus on quality has resulted in a beautiful new public space.
