Watkins Payne played a pivotal role in the design of the brand new 1.2-acre Adventure Park at the Savill Garden in Windsor. With our expertise and dedication, we successfully completed various essential tasks to ensure the park’s development and its subsequent success as a popular attraction.
Comprehensive site assessments and surveys were conducted to identify the most suitable locations for the Adventure Park’s different features. We took into account factors like safety, accessibility, and aesthetic appeal, ensuring that the park would offer an engaging and enjoyable experience for visitors of all ages.
We were responsible for overseeing the installation of thrilling rides, such as zip lines, climbing walls, and obstacle courses.
Throughout the entire process, we remained committed to quality assurance and safety, ensuring that all structures met the required standards and specifications. Our attention to detail and commitment to excellence ensured that the Adventure Park in Windsor became a safe and exciting venue that continues to attract and delight families and adventure enthusiasts alike.
