Oxford Terrace – Mini Environmental Improvement

Engineering Services was asked by Gleeson Homes to oversee the project management and site supervision for this scheme. The scheme involved removing the existing footpath surface in Oxford Terrace and constructing a dwarf brick wall, designing foundations around the services, installing brick steps using Marshalls ‘Nori’ pavers and reconstructing the ramp to improve the gradient. In addition an artist designed railing (commissioned by GBC Arts Development Officer) was supplied and installed to tie in with the dwarf wall.

This scheme required several different parties all working together and Engineering Services co-ordinated the needs and views of the client, design consultant, contractor and railing manufacturer.

The scheme started on 17th July 2001 and the main works were finished on Friday 17th August, with the railings installed at a later date.
