In order to protect future residents from excessive traffic noise from a planned double carriage highway and any possible negative visual impact associated with this, a 4.5 metre high and 500m long earth berm was created with the surplus site material.

As a result of this drop in noise levels, the normally high rotation of flats came to a standstill after people realised that with the new barrier, easy access to a main road would not mean being exposed to constant traffic noise.

The landscaping team used the terraces to good effect by creating almost instant hanging gardens with mostly water wise indigenous planting.
