Spotlight On Completed Surfacing and Resurfacing Projects

 

Goldsworth School

Work was completed at Goldsworth School in woking, Surrey in December 2011. Having dug out the existing slab floor, weedkiller was applied to clear the excavated area.

A New ACO Raindrain channel drainage system was installed & linked into the existing surface water manhole.

A terram Geotextile membrane was applied to the surface area and backfilled with 150mm of Type 1 stone, which was compacted with a 10-tonne roller.

Black 'Safetyfall' surfacing was laid & incorporated various colour stencils, including Yellow & Blue splashes, an orange 'Sally the Snake' and a 'Christopher Crocodile with footprints'.

Linden Bridge School

Work began at Linden Bridge School on the 13th February 2012 and took 3 weeks to complete. The existing tarmac, wet pour-rubber & paving of the old playground area was excavated & removed from site.

After applying weedkiller, all ironwork was adjusted & new square-top edgings were installed. A layer of terram geo-textile membrane was applied to the whole area & a layer of type 1 stone laid.

Once the stone had been compacted, the two-layered safetyfall rubber surface was installed. This consisted of a 50mm SBR Base layer.

London Surfacing were heavily involved in TFL's Tramlink improvement project for Croydon in February 2012 in conjunction with Volkerrail.

Starting in the early hours of Saturday 11th Feb, London Surfacing planed off the existing tarmac surface at different locations within the Croydon Tramlink route - Station Road (Just past West Croydon Bus terminal) & George Street (Crown Hill).
