Redevelopment of site to create destination retail park

The project comprised the regeneration of a series of underutilised/ derelict buildings and the creation of a new destination retail park.

The project included inward facing, large format retail units with surface car parking and drive-through fast food unit.

There were a number of challenges that Quoinstone's expertise and hands-on approach helped overcome whilst developing the retail park.

The site was located near a tidal and river affected stream; as well as bounded by an access road and a main road. Ground conditions were also not ideal and required careful consideration and an appropriate solution implemented.
There was existing drainage and services running under the site. The design and layout needed to be sympathetic of these pre-existing conditions.
Managing a phased handover of units whilst continuing infrastructure delivery and construction in other phases.
Accommodating late changes to design and layout to suit occupier requirements.

High-quality regeneration

The redevelopment was completed within the overall parameters of cost and programme set by the client.
