Project Design Brief
The installation of cable pits were to cope with the vast amount of electrical and communication infrastructure required to broadcast the Commonwealth Games events in 2018. The pits needed to enclose television, radio, lighting, power and CCTV cables and be secure, to prevent access by unauthorised personnel.
