Challenge

Bailey Streetscene was approached by Kier Construction to make a proposal for products that would be suitable for the internal courtyard areas of Atherleigh Park, a new, innovative £40million mental health hospital in Greater Manchester.

Solution

After a number of design meetings, the client decided on the courtyard package suggested by Bailey Streetscene.

Springwell and Stoke planters were installed in the internal courtyard. 

Deacon benches and Aris concrete benches were installed with anti-tamper fixings to ensure they could not be removed after being established.

As part of a second phase, additional products were chosen for the entrance and car park area of the hospital.

A Bromley cycle shelter, along with standard bollards and litter bins, were implemented around the car park. The same seating and planters were also used to match the internal courtyards.

Aris concrete benches were placed along the main path outside of the hospital. This modular range of seating provided relaxing seating areas with the design of soft edges and additional planter space.

Outcome

With early discussions taking place between all parties, Bailey Streetscene was able to co-ordinate the delivery and installation of all units within the allotted time constraints on the various phases of work.

“I am incredibly proud of all the hard work that has gone into making Atherleigh Park a reality. It is a fantastic facility and will make a huge difference to the lives of not only the patients who are treated here but their families too."
