Northumbria Police serves a population of 1.5 million people and covers an area of more than 2,000 square miles in the North East of England, from the Scottish border down to County Durham and from the Pennines across to the North East coast.
The £27 million Northumbria Police area command headquarters in Wallsend, North Tyneside was officially opened and became fully operational in early November 2011.
The new Headquarters building includes a 40 cells custody suite and is a base for up to 300 North Tyneside police officers and support staff. Designed by Ryder Architecture, this is the first new police station to be built by Northumbria Police Authority in 10 years.
Hauraton FASERFIX® SUPER KS 100 surface water drainage channels made from tough fibre reinforced concrete were installed around the building. Immediately in front of the building the Architects chose Class A15, Stainless Steel longitudinal slot gratings along the main footpath channel run as these provided an elegant curving line up towards the building’s public entrance. The same gratings were also specified along the façade to co-ordinate visually with the footpath gratings.
FASERFIX® channels were also installed along the access road, but these were fitted with Ductile Iron HEELSAFE gratings having 6mm slots and a loading Class of C250.
