A £4 million project has been completed by Clegg Construction to create much-needed additional parking capacity at the University of Birmingham.
A six-storey car park covering 100,000 square feet has been built on the university’s Edgbaston Campus, providing almost 500 parking spaces for staff and students.
The university awarded the contract for the project to Clegg Construction last spring looking for innovative solutions to its need for more private parking on the campus.
The completed car park has dual staircase access to its six floors.
Simon Blackburn, managing director at Clegg Construction, said: “Our policy is to apply the same standards of quality and innovative thinking to any project, whatever the building.
“This project builds on our links with universities and we were pleased to be able to come up with a solution to the problems the University of Birmingham was facing.
“The new car park has provided a relatively quick and effective solution to that problem and it is satisfying for all of our team involved to know that their efforts will make a positive difference to life on the campus.”
As well as reducing the parking problems previously experienced by staff, students and visitors, the new car park was planned and designed to make good use of vacant land within the Edgbaston Campus.
