Olympic Games – modular barges for Cardiff Canoe
|
Vessels: Barges capable of entering Cardiff Port
In November 2008 DSB Offshore came up with the innovative solution of utilising modular barges during the construction phase for the £13.3M olympic standard Canoe Slalom Centre and White Water Rafting Centre at Cardiff International Sports Village. This included arranging for the delivery of the modular barges to site using flatbed lorries by road.
The design is by the French company, HydroStadium, who have designed the courses for the Sydney, Athens and now the Beijing Olympics, with the construction carried out by Dean & Dyball Civil Engineering (Wales). Our involvement in the project ran until spring 2009.
