The Project

The Light Bowling Alley is located in the modern Castle Quay complex in Banbury, Oxfordshire.

The development contains a cinema, bowling alley and a range of other leisure activities like karaoke and American pool. Funded by the Cherwell District Council, the venue is part of the regeneration of the town, bringing an added sense of optimism and change. There are 10, fully accessible boutique lanes which act as the perfect space for date nights, family reunions and work nights out. The Light Bowling Alley even offers the opportunity to order food and drink straight to your lane, so you can avoid the queues and stay in the zone. To maintain this disturbance free, animated atmosphere, the alley needed a solution to prevent sound transmission- Farrat was challenged with this task.

 

Key value we brought to the project

Earlier in the project, Farrat designed and supplied Farrat CineSTEEL pads to isolate the cinema within this development.

Further measures were needed to isolate the bowling lanes from the rest of the main structure. BowlFLOOR LITE was selected for this purpose and it was supplied to QubicaAMF to install as part of their finished bowling system.

BowlFLOOR LITE
Where an existing structure can’t support the load of a heavyweight floating slab, BowlFLOOR LITE utilises high dynamic deflection polyurethane to extract the maximum possible low-frequency isolation from bowling lane structures that don’t incorporate an additional floating slab.
