Synopsis:
As part of the development of Birmingham New Street to transform into Grand Central, key infrastructure works were undertaken. We installed a bespoke barrier system that we designed, manufactured and installed for our client in order to not just meet, but exceed their expectations.

- Bespoke Rigid P224 Post System

- RB1X (100 X 14) Posts
- Berry Beam used for Split Level and Perimeter locations
- Handrail and Mesh for Pedestrian Protection
- Bay Ends
Birmingham New Street:
Birmingham New Street station has long been a train transport hub for the Midlands. Operating 13 platforms, it is a key station for travelling to various destinations throughout the UK.
Through recent development, it is now widely known as Grand Central – a shopping and leisure facility neighbouring the station itself, with popular high street stores and luxury brand outlets.
Berry Systems took on the project to provide off highway barrier protection for their car park facility. This was a bespoke system that we created to accommodate the client’s needs by using our rigid posts and Berry Beam products combined.
This combination of products helped to accommodate split levels for the car park whilst retaining compliance.
To increase safety further, we also installed pedestrian handrail and mesh. Both of these systems help protect pedestrians as the handrail provides accessibility support. The mesh that we install as part of pedestrian protection has an anti-climb design to deliver additional safety.
