Elliott’s Field Retail Park – Car Park

Project Overview

The site, which was previously occupied by a Halfords store, was the last phase of the popular Elliott’s Field Retail Park in Rugby. The development of this 41,800 m2 retail destination was completed in two phases between 2014 and 2017 and now required additional car parking spaces.

The project presented some logistical design challenges which were overcome, for example, the interfaces with previous phases, bringing together the new and existing car park and construction underneath overhead cables.

The team produced a detail design for the external works which considered different surfaces and kerbing different pavements. It included an attenuation tank and flow restriction, which ensured the scheme met the sustainable credentials and parameters established in previous phases by reducing the flow rate discharging to the nearby brook. Ducting and electrical lighting design were also provided.

Access for retail businesses and the public highway during the necessary works was critical and ONE’s team advised on how to phase the improvements in a live traffic environment with minimum disruption to current businesses. The works were completed in August 2018.

• ONE's design team did a great job on Elliott's Field Car Park. I know I can rely on them to deliver time and again, and therefore I have had no hesitation in commissioning them for other projects too.
