Kingsway MSCP

CRL give Kingsway MSCP new lease of life ...

The car park, which spans 8 levels serves both the adjoining shopping centre and adjacent high street.

Colourful, bright safe pedestrian walkways and information marking’s were added, clearing highlighting the pedestrian routes to central lift core, leading to the
shopping centre.

With areas of severe standing water, providing a substantial slip hazard throughout the upper decks of the car park, level surveys were undertaken and a total of 32 number additional drainage outlets were provided.
