Innovation Park Medway (IPM) is an inspirational new home for businesses working in technology, precision engineering and manufacturing, located on a former runway of Rochester Airport. The IPM Car Park accommodates 240 parking spaces over four floors, with 20% of spaces for electric vehicles. It consolidates car parking to maximise the public realm and becomes an integral link in the campus, whether arriving by car, bicycle or on foot.
This is a civic building designed with the well-being of its users and the wider community in mind. It is welcoming, well lit, safe and accessible to all.
The layout emerged from a social ideal to create a safe environment. Perimeter walkways provide safe segregation between cars and pedestrians as well as allowing users to benefit from good natural daylight and spectacular views over both the Kent Downs and the Runway Park.
