Keystone retaining wall system supplied to Manchester Airport
Project name: Manchester airport spine road Project type: Highway and infrastructure Product: Keystone TW3 Client: BCEGI international Contractor: GPL construction Installer: PC construction
Ibstock supplied our Keystone Retaining Wall system to a project at Manchester Airport which will create a new Spine Road connecting with the existing road network near Terminal 2. Almost 1000m² of block will be used to form the two back to back walls which will rise up to just over 5 metres in height. The road forms part of the Airport City North development scheme which will be one of the most exciting business destinations in the UK and one of the most significant since the Olympic Park development in 2012 covering 5 million sq ft at a cost of £650 million.
