Dronfield Civic Centre, Derbyshire
North East Derbyshire District Council took on a project to refresh the public realm surrounding the Civic Centre in Dronfield. The goal was to improve the area's overall appeal and functionality for residents, businesses, and visitors alike.
Client: Gary Fletcher Surfacing Ltd
Year: 2024
The scope of the works included a combination of hard and soft landscaping, improved pedestrian access, and the addition of new street furniture, including seats and waste bins.
A key feature of the development was creating a flexible event space, designed for community gatherings and seasonal events. Additional improvements included the relocation of the existing bus shelter to a more practical place and the overall enhancement of the visitor experience throughout the town centre.
In partnership with Gary Fletcher Surfacing Ltd, Broxap supplied high-quality street furniture tailored to complement the new landscape design.
This included contemporary Florence Steel and Timber Seating, as well as our durable Westleigh Litter Bins. Featuring a galvanised and powder coated steel-frame, and six timber slats on the front, they contribute to the site's visual appeal and offer practical, user-friendly amenities that support the area’s cleanliness.
Council Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Cllr Jayne Barry said: “This is just one of many projects we are undertaking across the district to improve our towns, high streets, parks and play areas and increase our tourist economy thanks to the IK SPF funding”.
To ensure minimal disruption to local businesses and the public, the project was delivered in carefully planned phases. Each section was completed as quickly as possible before being reopened for public use, allowing the community to continue enjoying the space throughout the course of the works.
