Project Brief

Following the demolition of Tata garages, Outokumpu offices and Tata warehouse and a year of remediation work, the new Fox Valley retail facility was ready to be built, which included retail outlet shops and parking for 600 vehicles.

The development is designed to be in keeping with the area’s industrial heritage and fulfils the requirement for a new retail and commercial development in the area.
 

Marshalls Civils and Drainage Solution

To ensure that the maximum amount of space was optimised for car parking. Marshalls Civils and Drainage's Redi-Rock modular walling was installed which is versatile enough to achieve height without compromising on strength. Designed by Pell Frishchmann, the natural stone looking retaining wall was quick to install and offered lower project costs.
 

Client Comments

David Goddard, Senior Project Manager for Henry Boot said: “This has been a complex project involving the remediation and complete redevelopment of a former steelworks. It was a major undertaking for our company and has successfully transformed the North Sheffield site into a vibrant shopping centre creating 900 jobs for the local community.”

Since the official opening, Fox Valley has been used for the 2017 Tour de Yorkshire race, where the world’s best cyclists used the event as a dress rehearsal for the 2019 UCI World Championships which are to be held in the UK.
