Sureset surfaces in Uxbridge

Supplier: SureSet UK Ltd
More SureSet UK Ltd details

The recently completed London Borough of Hillingdon Athletics Stadium at Uxbridge is the first phase in a redevelopment programme for its Hill House Farm site and will become the borough's centre of excellence for athletics.

Environmental planning specialists, Gillespies, carried out the initial Environmental Impact Assessments as the development is on Green belt land and were also responsible for landscape treatments in conjunction with main contractor Fitzpatrick and architects, Faulkner Browns.

The track and field facilities conform precisely to UK Athletics recommendations but environmental planning specialists, Gillespies, were well aware of the need to enhance areas surrounding the track to provide both a visually attractive facility and some blending of tones between the main arena and the adjacent 'green' areas.

An easy option would have been to use asphalt but the Gillespies management team felt that SureSet resin bound surfacing would be more appropriate for use at Uxbridge.

Colour palettes were prepared for assessment with a 3mm Pearl finish being specified for the track surrounds and adjacent areas. Outside of the track 3mm Pearl has also been used for the cycle parking area and tree pits have been constructed from porous 8mm Rounded White.

Some 1435sq. m. of 3mm Pearl have been laid in total, with 18sq. m. of Rounded White for the tree pits. Sureset's installation team completed the total project in just 7 days.

The £3.6m. facility will eventually incorporate a new indoor swimming and leisure complex and upgrading of the site's existing open air Lido. Here Gillespies have also specified SureSet's 3mm Pearl for a semi-circular area surrounding the proposed sun terraces, providing both continuity with hard landscaping in the stadium areas and a non-slip surface treatment.
