Transcript of Sports Pitch Construction for HMP Featherstone - Phase 2 case study
Work by O’Brien
Client Shaylor Strategic Alliance Project HMP Featherstone Phase 2 Natural Turf & MUGA Pitches Location Wolverhampton Value £415K Contract Duration 12 Weeks
Construction of a natural turf pitch and MUGA pitch.
Phase 2 involved the construction of the two new pitches:
MUGA Pitch
The project involved the design and build of a 5 a-side sports pitch. The work included site clearance and reduced level dig with cut and fill.
The underside of the playing surface was a “Finn” underground drainage system
and free draining sub-base granular fill. The playing surface used was “Playrite
Matchwinner” synthetic sports surface with shockpad, surrounded by a 3m high
welded mesh fence.
Natural Turf Pitch
The project involved the build of a natural turf rugby/football field.
The underside of the natural pitch was made up from a number of layers which
were supported by the lime stabilized formation in order to create the most level
playing surface.
The pitch consisted of a 125mm drainage layer of Viridor recycled glass and
175mm Rootzone 80/20 supplied by Tarmac Topsport.
The “Sports Greenscape” turf was then laid to complete the natural turf pitch.
