A town centre car park refurbished using Sika products has won a coveted industry award.

Preston Bus Station, for which Sika provided the concrete repair and solution and car park decking finishes, was judged winner of the MiPermit Inspiration category at this year’s British Parking Awards (BPA). The renovation was carried out by Makers Construction on behalf of Lancashire County Council. It was part of a larger restoration of the Grade II-listed bus station and included the building of a new coach station and toilets, and the refurbishment of a café. The award winners were announced at a gala ceremony held at London’s Royal Lancaster Hotel.
