BALI National Landscape Award for Bridgegate

Bridgegate Public Realm has been awarded a BALI (British Association of Landscape Industries) National Landscape Award. Contractor Land Engineering picked up the award in the ‘Hard Landscaping Construction’ category.

Graham Ross (Partner at Austin-Smith:Lord and Project Director for Bridgegate Public Realm) said “Winning a BALI Award is a terrific achievement. It is recognition of Land Engineering’s accomplished execution of the works, and by association, acknowledgement of the quality of the design by Austin-Smith:Lord and our design team colleagues.

“We’ve been delighted to receive positive feedback since the streetscape and public artworks were unveiled in late 2013. The public realm works, in combination with the refurbishment of Bridgegate House and conservation works to the listed Trinity Church, have transformed a key location in Irvine. The Bridgegate project is one of Irvine Bay Regeneration Company and North Ayrshire Council’s flagship projects in redefining and enhancing Irvine Town Centre and we’re delighted to have been involved in such a successful project.”
