Ten Traffic Street Nottingham

Ten Traffic Street is a new-build, 522-bed purpose built student accommodation scheme, providing luxury and comfortable living in the heart of Nottingham city centre. Comprising two blocks that are part three, part five and part six storeys in height, the accommodation is a mix of studio and cluster apartments. It also features 235 cycle spaces, including e-bike charging points.

The scheme was designed by CPMG Architects, the development transforms a derelict site on the south side of Nottingham city centre, close to Nottingham Train Station. Amenity facilities include a cinema, gym, games room, library, communal study area, a party room and a café. The building also includes a roof terrace with fantastic views up to the castle and over the city centre.

BSP Consulting provided civil and structural engineering services on the £35 million development that has been built on a brownfield site between Traffic Street, Waterway Street West and Sheriffs Way.
It is a significant development that will benefit future students who come to the city.

Key challenges and engineering solutions

• A tight city centre island site
• Partywall interfaces
• Designing structure to site elegantly within tight grids of the student bedrooms
• Section 278 works

BSP Consulting structures director Carl Hilton said: “This is a major scheme on the edge of Nottingham city centre, which will breathe new life into this area, and BSP Consulting is proud to be involved in such a significant development that will benefit future students who come to the city.”

BSP previously worked for Jensco on the award-winning One Friar Gate Square in Derby, home to the University of Derby’s School of Law and Social Sciences, and Agard Court, student housing for the University of Derby.
