Arena and Major Venue Development
Major venues are complex, multi-party projects. An evidence-led approach to capacity, access, infrastructure and commercial assumptions is essential before significant design spend.
Concept and capacity
Define events, capacity and configuration. These drive the building envelope, servicing, back-of-house and transport demand.
Site, access and infrastructure
- Public transport, road access, parking and crowd management
- Utilities capacity and energy strategy
- Servicing and event logistics
Planning and environment
Expect transport assessment, noise, air quality, townscape/landscape impact and possibly Environmental Impact Assessment.
Commercial assumptions and risk
Operator input, revenue streams, funding and phasing should be tested alongside capital cost. Delivery risks include programme, cost inflation and stakeholder alignment.
Consultant coordination and delivery
Carters can help coordinate the design team and plan the development stages from feasibility through to delivery.
