Dry Riser Installation Complete – Bristol Airport Car Park Expansion

The Brief

Dry Riser Installation Complete – Bristol Airport Car Park Expansion

Bristol Airport, the third-largest regional airport in England, is a key international gateway for the South West of England and South Wales. With connections to over 120 global destinations—more than any other airport in the region—it plays a vital role in the UK’s transport infrastructure. As the airport continues to grow, so too does the demand for safe, modern, and reliable facilities.
As part of the latest expansion project, Bristol Airport is significantly increasing its multi-storey car park capacity, adding over 2,000 new spaces. This development also includes a newly designed drop-off and pick-up area, along with improved Blue Badge parking to enhance accessibility.

We were proud to be selected to deliver the complete dry riser installation for this critical phase of the expansion. The package included the design, installation, and testing of nine dry riser systems comprising 76 outlet valves across the structure. Every system was tested at 12 bar pressure, ensuring full functionality in line with the strict standards of BS 9990:2015.

 

All materials used on this project were sourced from one of the UK’s leading fire safety distributors, ensuring full compliance and consistent quality across the installation. As with all our work, the focus was on long-term reliability, rapid installation, and minimal disruption to the wider construction timeline.

This isn’t our first time working in complex, high-traffic environments. We’ve also successfully delivered dry riser systems at Gatwick Airport and Luton Airport , and our experience with airport infrastructure gives us a clear understanding of the standards, coordination, and performance required on projects of this scale and complexity.

With over ten years of experience delivering dry riser systems across the UK, we continue to support large-scale developments in sectors ranging from aviation and transport to residential, commercial, and public buildings. Our commitment to quality, safety, and compliance remains at the heart of everything we do.

If you’re managing an airport or transport facility and require a trusted team to handle your dry riser installation, testing, or maintenance, we’re ready to help. Get in touch with our team today at 0800 689 4034 to find out more or request a quote.
