HVM – landscaping with CT Block Seats

CT Block Range

Location: Todd Street, Manchester.

Manchester CC has undertaken an improvement to the resilience of Todd street through the implementation of HVM measures to help protect the widely used public space at Cathedral Gardens.

The aim of the improvements is to create a distinct and protected space for the public to use and linger beside the Todd street water features. The sympathetic use of Townscape’s CT Block in both a Dark Grey and Sandstone Red has helped to create a sense of tranquillity and focus.  Townscape’s involvement in the project, has meant that the space has now been transformed into a practical yet engaging domain for staff, the local community, and visitors alike.

The main contractor was Rosgal. The architects for the scheme were Manchester City Council.
