A J Taylor Ltd completed the new West Bromwich indoor market for Interclass PLC on behalf on Sandwell Council. The market is strategically located on the High Street, next to the outdoor market, thereby offering a centralised hub for both traditional and contemporary market experiences. This new site will replace the existing indoor market currently situated in King Square.
The new market blends classic market stalls with modern amenities, including a specialist street food court featuring communal seating. This design layout creates a lively atmosphere that caters to a wide range of tastes.
The Ground Floor consisted of the design of 21 no. non-food stalls, 7 no. food stalls, 4 no. kitchens, seating area, public WCs and back of house areas (including trader storage and loading area). The first floor gave a generous space for future co-working studios and market management spaces, including an office and staff kitchen.
LED lighting is provided throughout with colour temperatures of 3000K to provide enhanced colour rendering, creating a warm, inviting food stall ambiance. Emergency lighting is complete with self-testing facility to reduce future maintenance.
The LV infrastructure was upgraded at the DNO substation to allow for the 2no new LV supplies to the market stalls and food courts.
Other services include fire alarm systems, security systems comprising of access control, intruder alarm & CCTV, PA system. Other facilities also include a disabled refuge and WC alarm system.
