Topgolf Driving Range, Addlestone
£824,000.00
The works involved the excavation & re-shaping of 20,000m³ of inert fill & the forming of perimeter landscaping bunds around a 6-acre Synthetic turf outfield. Within the turfed areas,10No. 4m deep golf targets were constructed using circular galvanised metal retaining walls. These targets were up to 23m in diameter, shaped to enable the driven golf balls to fall under gravity to a central collection point. Due to the high water table, all these targets were lined with 3mm HDPE liner to reduce the ingress of ground water into the target structures.
A fully designed drainage system was installed to enable surface water to be collected & re-circulated adjacent irrigation lakes on the adjoining golf course.
The whole of the driving outfield was covered with a synthetic turf to emulate a grass golf fairway. Floodlighting & perimeter nets were erected to maximise playing times & safety for neighbouring properties.
