The project involved the careful removal of existing surfacing and the design and implementation of new sub-base structures, informed by detailed trial holes and CBR testing to ensure robust and appropriate foundations. Loughman’s skilled teams ensured seamless execution of the paving works, which included protecting existing York Stone and installing new inspection chambers and covers to perfectly match the historical context. Crucially, operations required working within a live public environment. We meticulously managed pedestrian segregation and public safety, maintaining access to the Wing throughout the project and upholding exceptionally high standards of site cleanliness. Furthermore, a strict “permit to work” regime was adopted for each new area, demonstrating our rigorous adherence to protocols necessary when working on a sensitive national heritage site. This project showcased Loughman’s ability to deliver high-quality, technically precise enhancements that complement and preserve the integrity of a world-renowned heritage destination.
