Hampshire County Council Vehicle Workshop
Hampshire County Council had developed the scheme to Planning Application stage and required a Contractor-lead team to progress the project. John Hobden were the successful tenderer and the scheme was developed in liaison with the County’s Highways, Transport and Workshop managers. Various improvements were incorporated into the scheme and specialist hoist, inspection pit and MOT testing equipment was included in the final design, all designed for large Highways maintenance vehicles of up to 18 tonnes.
Studio Four obtained Building Regulations approval and prepared Working Drawings for the project, which includes three servicing bays, an MOT bay, reception, offices and storage areas. Underfloor heating was incorporated in the modern workshop, which had to be precisely in accordance with VOSA standards in order to receive an MOT licence.
