Beyonce opened the stadium concert season this year with a stunning 5 nights at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as the London leg of the Renaissance World Tour. Those lucky enough to get a ticket (around 200,000 across the 5 nights) were truly entertained with a fantastic stage set, costume changes and, of course, the music. Truly spectacular.
We have been supporting our partners and The FCDO (Foreign and Commonwealth Development Office) for a number of years now ranging from the G7 Summit, COP26 Glasgow through to the late Queen's funeral, so we were extremely proud to support the coronation of King Charles III.
CSP have provided traffic management services to The Boat Race since 2016, and whilst it moved to Cambridge during the pandemic, it's great to see it back in its rightful home on the Thames.
CSP have been operating at Twickenham Stadium on behalf of the RFU since 2003 with our first car park operation coinciding with Twickenham's first concert: The Rolling Stones in 2003. Roll on 20 years and it's not just the car parks we are entrusted with but the full traffic management and external stewarding operation covering the visitor route from Twickenham High Street and Station all the way down to the Stadium. We are pleased to have been re-appointed with a new term contract, testament to the value in which we hold this client.
Over the last 5 years we have seen an increase in the demand for temporary HVM (Hostile Vehicle Movement) systems, as the Police withdraw from venue footprints and also with the terrorist risks attached. These systems were also used during the pandemic to allow external restaurant expansions and support wider footpaths. We provide 2 solutions: one is a heavyweight ATG solution which is suitable to maintain in place for more than a day, with pins which can be dropped to allow emergency vehicle access. The second is our lighter weight Mifram system which is is more beneficial where there are limited build or break periods available for road closures, as can be installed and demounted in under 30 minutes, and is easily rolled back to allow emergency vehicle access.
We were very proud to be awarded the traffic management contract at ExCeL London in December, following a period of off-site management to support the busy event schedule at the venue. Our history at the venue goes all the way back to the start of the millennium, when we were instrumental in the design of the traffic management plans and managed the operations on-site. After a few years, ExCeL London implemented a strategy of taking the operation in-house and so our team there switched employer and continued to provide an excellent service for many years to come.
