Moberly Sports Centre
Client:
Willmott Dixon Construction Ltd (on behalf of Westminster City council).
Robert West provided transport planning services in respect of a scheme which sought the redevelopment of the existing Moberly Sports Centre to provide a state of the art wet and dry leisure facility. Participation in significant stakeholder engagement was required from Robert West. This included liaison with highway officers in both London Borough of Brent and Westminster as the site was located on the Borough Boundary, and additionally gain support of local residents through participation in a Community Reference Group. The transport issues addressed included rationalisation of access and car parking arrangements, addressing the impact on a residential street suffering from con- gestion, provision of adequate operational parking on a constrained site, loss of staff parking and increased demand for travel by car. The mitigation strategy included a Travel Plan, Delivery and Servicing Plan, a lorry ban to reduce rat-running locally, a new pedestrian crossing and on-street mini-bus bays. Following grant of planning permission, Robert West supported Willmott Dixon in the discharge of planning conditions related to construction traffic management and detailed travel plans. Our infrastructure team produced highway works design for technical approval via Section 278 Agreement, and we made an application to the highway authority for a building oversailing licence.
