Objectives
Brighton i360 is situated on Brighton seafront in the heart of the iconic seaside city. Created by Marks Barfield Architects, the team behind the London Eye, Brighton i360 employs the same sleek, modern aesthetic and state-of-the-art technology.
The tower is 150m tall and the Pod gently glides up to 138m in the spacious glass viewing Pod to enjoy 360°panoramic views of Brighton, a seaside city. Brighton i360 wanted to provide a walk around the Pod whilst at a height of 138m for the public as a new attraction.
Solutions
- Design the safety system
- Fabricate and install the safety system
- Install fabricated steelwork and Harken Rail system
- Create operating procedures
- Carry out on-site training
Brighton i360 now have another attraction to offer the public giving them another source of income and can use the lifeline for maintenance, which has solved another issue of accessing the top of the Pod safely.
Result
Brighton i360 are very happy with the complete package which MCL Height Safety delivered and is now looking at other types of attractions MCL can assist with.
