WPS was invited to manage the removal of the Jurassic Skyline Observation Tower at Weymouth, which was originally erected in 2011 in readiness for the 2012 Olympics.

 

The Tower consisted of 5 sections, 1 motor room, 1 counterbalance weight and a rotating gondola to seat a maximum of 60 guests. The Observation Tower was decommissioned and carefully taken down for reuse at another facility.
