Award Winning Lancashire Office Development Progresses to Detail Design

Award Winning Lancashire Office Development Progresses to Detail Design
Preston City Council granted planning permission for this iconic office development and adjoining 600 space car park in the North East of the City in 2009.

This followed production of detailed traffic assessments and innovative travel plans to support the development proposals. Highway consultants Mayer Brown, who have an office in Preston, worked closely with the Highways Agency and Lancashire County Council to develop a deliverable package of transport measures for the project.  

Mark Butt, Mayer Brown’s North West Regional Manager noted that ‘The development offers a great investment boost for Preston, and we are proud to be part of the award winning scheme’. 

In addition, the adjoining 600 space car park will assist local employers with their current parking problems at the business park, by offering secure off road parking. 

The Moxon Architects office design won the RIBA competition in 2007. The project has since received commendations from the Architectural Review, British Council of Offices and MIPIM 2009 Future Projects Awards.

The scheme is now progressing through to detail design with Mayer Brown engineers working with Lancashire County Council on the highway designs.
