Outcome
Redevelopment of Trafford Town Hall
THE SOLUTION
We managed the refurbishment of this Grade II listed town hall, including an historic council chamber and creation of meeting rooms. The 1980’s extension was demolished for 45,000 sq ft of new, open plan office space, accommodated within three, two-storey wings. This included a new public reception and conference facility and a two-storey internal street. The building is the first in Europe to incorporate heating and cooling fed from a natural Aquifer under the site.
THE BENEFIT
This redevelopment saved the council £2 million in annual maintenance costs.
