Paul Basham Associates continue to score transport works with Southampton Football Club
THE BRIEF
With the Premier League and now European Football available for the club, Southampton Football Club have continued to meet the team’s success by continually improving their facilities and managing travel demand to their St Mary’s Stadium with over 32,000 fans capacity.
OUR APPROACH
In 2013, Paul Basham Associates were asked to chair a meeting between the club and Southampton City Council whereby measures and strategies to encourage and assist sustainable travel to the stadium was discussed.
Working collaboratively, a number of opportunities were identified which both the club and the council progressed, including both hard infrastructure measures (wayfinding assistance through the city) and softer measures promoted through the SFC website and season ticket documentation.
THE RESULT
Paul Basham Associates continue to review of the Stadium Transport Plan and Traffic Management Plan, to support the use of the stadium in future years.
We are proud to continue working alongside the club and support its successes both on and off the field.
From our client
Southampton Football Club would not hesitate in utilising Paul Basham Associates experience and knowledge again and would recommend their services to any other business in their area of professional traffic consultation.
