It's all hands on deck at the John Landy Athletics Field! 🔨 The redevelopment of the Geelong Region's athletics track is in its final stages, with the project expected to be completed within the coming weeks. The redevelopment will use more than 50 tonnes of recycled rubber as part of upgrades, from end-of-life truck tyres. CEO of City of Greater Geelong, Ali Wastie, has stated that the use of recyclable materials in Council projects is an ongoing priority: "Our Environment Strategy promotes a circular economy through sustainable procurement practices, supports new and existing markets for recovered resources, and promotes increased use of recycled materials in road, building and other infrastructure constructions.” Read more about the John Landy Redevelopment Project here: https://lnkd.in/e4abmVTr Image credit: Geelong Athletics

It's time for #Olympics2024 - and usually its the sports nuts (and insomniacs!) who are excited. But this time around it's about much more than sport. For those who are: - sustainability and impact minded - curious to see how or why a business should get invovled - unsure about how you can deliver impact without damaging your existing business Have a look into the great work of Paris 2024 - Comité d'organisation des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de 2024 - they're taking a different approach to their Olympic developments. https://lnkd.in/gnr2up9g

Thrilled to see the historic House of Fraser on Oxford Street getting a new lease on life! Publica Properties has appointed McLaren Construction to transform the space into a modern mixed-use development, blending retail, offices, restaurants, and even a gym with a pool! ️ This project isn't just about reviving a beloved landmark, it's also a prime example of sustainable development. By reusing much of the existing structure and facade, they're significantly reducing the carbon footprint. Plus, high-performance windows and centralized services will further minimize emissions. ♻️ This "retro-first" approach is exactly what we need to see more of in the construction industry. Not only does it preserve heritage, but it also creates vibrant new spaces while minimizing environmental impact. This project is a great example of how innovation and sustainability can go hand-in-hand. Repurposing existing buildings is not only good for the environment but also breathes new life into cherished landmarks. Excited to see the finished product! ✨ https://lnkd.in/eEDqTxvC #OxfordStreet #Sustainability #Retrofitting #Construction #London
