Isle of Wight, Hampshire – Case Study
The brief
We have worked with this client before on various other projects. Trusting our expertise, they approached us with their plans to upgrade seven of their existing bus shelters in order to incorporate illuminated advertising panels.
The process
In the preliminary stages, we submitted several planning drawings of the proposed shelters due to the advertising panels. This involved liaising with the relevant governing bodies to ensure the design fit their rules and regulations.
After submitting these plans, we were granted planning permission. We then visited the site to assess the best way forward. Some shelters already had hard stands in place, meaning we only needed to bolt these down to the existing base.
Installation
Despite appalling wind and rain, and a couple of particularly difficult areas to dig, our team successfully installed all seven shelters within the given time frame. Our client was incredibly happy with the outcome and loved the newly implemented advertising boards.
