BWB have been appointed to develop the new Intu Potteries shopping centre redevelopment in Stoke. The 58,000 sq. ft. scheme comprises a new 9 screen multiplex cinema and the refurbishment of the existing car park and shopping centre which will see the creation of new retail and food and beverage units.
The site is constructed on historic mine workings and coal seam grouting needs to be undertaken prior to the development commencing.
The cinema has a basement of up to 6m deep which houses several Auditoria and is to be constructed adjacent an existing road and the existing shopping centre. Drainage diversions, road diversions and essential enabling works needed to be coordinated and phased to keep the existing development operational during the construction of the scheme.
