Bus Station Fencing, West Berkshire

13 November 2024

As part of West Berkshire Council’s 2014 twelve year plan for development in Newbury, the existing bus interchange station was earmarked for redevelopment in order to align with the vision to create an ‘impressive sense of arrival into the town’.

To complete the development of the bus station, fencing and gates were required around the perimeter of the site. Having completed the refurbishment of Newbury Train Station a year prior, with 160m of their Bow Top fencing, Jacksons Fencing was approached for the neighbouring development to supply and install bus station fencing.

To secure the perimeter and provide passenger safety when disembarking and entering the bus station, Jacksons installed 90m of 1.5m high Sentry® vertical bar fencing. Manufactured from hot dip galvanised tubular steel, the Sentry fencing system is lightweight yet strong and durable, and provides a no-fuss industrial appearance which fits in with the surroundings. Panels, with a welded pale-through-rail construction, are secured to posts with concealed, tamper-proof connectors, and no visible fixings. The design provides a robust, vandal-resistant fencing solution which is ideal for this environment.

With a 25 year service life guarantee against rust, the new bus station fencing and gates satisfy the requirements for sustainability, providing a low lifetime cost and a long-lasting boundary fencing solution. With a flat top and pales that do not protrude through the top rail, the fence has a non-threatening appearance which is key in public places.
