Description
A Car Park for the Environment
Adding more parking options at the GO Transit stations encourages people to use transit, which reduces congestion on the roads and helps the environment.
In March 2010, a new parking facility was added to the Go Aurora station, located on Wellington Street in Aurora, Ontario, Canada.
It is a five-level parking structure with 866 new parking spots. Aurora GO Transit passengers now have access to more than 1,700 parking spots at the station.
Wire Mesh Façade
Three sides of the building façade are cladded with DOGLA-TRIO 1010 by Haver & Boecker Wire Weaving Canada.
In total, more than 1,300 m² of wire mesh type DOGLA-TRIO were installed. The open area of approximately 72% ensures not only the required ventilation, but also creates exceptional light reflections, giving a unique appearance of high value to the building.
Besides the function of ventilation and the optical enhancement, the wire mesh façade has yet another function; it provides fall protection for the occupants of the parkade.
The standard mesh elements have a height of 13.0 m and a width of 2.6 m and were supplied by Haver & Boecker Wire Weaving Canada ready for installation, complete with tensioning devices, which consist of flat tension profiles, clevis screws, and pressure springs.
