Lakeland Pipes successfully completed a major project as part of an 11 million pound upgrade at Newcastle Racecourse
Introduction
Naylor Plastic Drainage sole stockist ‘Lakeland Pipes’ were successful in winning a major contract to supply drainage onto the new all-weather racecourse, signed off in June 2015 with work started September 2015.
Background
The British Horse Racing Authority approved an application from the owners at Arena Racing Company following a lengthy consultation period so that after installation all flat racing will take place on an all-weather Tapeta surface. All-weather racing has an important part to play in Horse Racing as areas of the UK see changes in impact of weather to their fixtures.
Market / Statistics
Kevin Allonby, MD of Lakeland Pipes says “continued growth in contract relationships have allowed us to supply direct from stock on short lead times to fulfil the short timescales of this project”.
Recent weather conditions that have impacted the North of England expect to see an upturn in projects as various building sectors review their drainage requirements, and Lakeland Pipes are working closely with contractors to ensure they have a good stocking and logistical profile from Naylor Industries to supply to the demands of the contractors, winning projects on short lead times in this highly competitive and responsive environment.
