Aggregate Industries provides tailored solution for North West Cambridge Development
AGGREGATE Industries has utilised its cross-sector expertise and partnership proposition to provide a portfolio of tailored product solutions for the first phase of the North West Cambridge Development – the University of Cambridge’s ambitious £1bn scheme to create a new sustainable district of homes, shops and schools on the city’s outlying farmland.
Aimed at addressing the escalating housing shortage in Cambridge, once complete the development will include 3,000 homes, accommodation for 2,000 postgraduate students and 100,000m2 of academic and research and development space.
There will also be a range of community, retail and leisure facilities along with sustainable transport provisions, such as cycle ways.
Through a collaborative cross-divisional approach, Aggregate Industries was ideally placed to provide a raft of bespoke solutions to the development, spanning specialist asphalt, ready- mixed concrete, and landscaping products.
From an asphalt perspective, planners were keen to avoid the use of traditional blacktop asphalt for road surfacing to ensure the new district was in keeping with the surrounding countryside – preferring materials that would produce a more natural aesthetic but were also durable enough to withstand the high levels of traffic expected to the site.
The task proved challenging as many of the decorative asphalt solutions currently available on the market, although capable of achieving the desired look, were not robust enough to meet the technical performance required. It was on this basis that a bespoke product solution using Aggregate Industries’
SuperColour® Exposed Golden Gravel formula was specified and the team carried out extensive skid resistance testing on the scheme prior to installation, to ensure it met exacting safety requirements.
