IMPLIMENTING COMPLIANT SYSTEMS TO ENHANCE PEDESTRIAN SAFETY

Monks Cross Shopping Park has had an update to the physical space, adding to the customer experience.

The Monks Cross development has been a prominent part of York’s suburban shopping scene, serving as a key regional retail hub since its establishment in 1998 with 26 stores.

The client wanted to create a large open plaza space to generate a ‘street scene’ atmosphere.  Without careful planning, the space could become a fortress given the extensive HVM measures required. This was overcome by the inclusion of soft landscaping features such as planters and seating alongside Hostile Vehicle Mitigation measures.
