CASE STUDY – DALZIEL PARK.
Disciplines : Groundworks, drainage, fencing, engineered base and 3G surfacing
The Brief
Dalziel Park is a dual sport rugby and football venue. DOE Sport were invited to tender for the resurfacing and extension of existing sand filled double pitches. On completion the pitches were to meet both FIFA 1 and IRB 22 Regulations for the respective sports.
Build up and delivery
The works included all civils work incorporating the extended footprint, a full drainage system, new retaining walls and an engineered base. The pitch was surfaced with FieldTurf Optimum RGF65 and laid onto a 15mm polymeric rubber in-situ shock-pad. The project was completed with the relocation of existing floodlight columns and finished with new Twin8 sports surround fencing system. The area was finished to a high standard with structured landscaping.

The Results
Over the years, Cleland Estate has been greatly used by many thousands of people and, today, Dalziel Park – arisen out of the redevelopment of Cleland Estate – is also extensively used by the present generation of Dalzielians. The new dual pitches allow all year round play for local football and rugby players ensuring the Trust legacy continues for another generation.
Doe were privileged to upgrade the facilites at Dalziel to the latest sports surfacing ensuring this Memorial is a long lasting tribute to the former pupils and members of staff of Dalziel High School who died during the Second World War.
