The buying organisation, Norse Commercial Services Limited, based in Norwich, serves as the largest commercial local authority trading company in the UK. The project, commissioned by the North Norfolk District Council, involved decommissioning the existing car park, reclaiming and reusing materials, and constructing a new car park and entrance with necessary highway improvements in the Happisburgh area, which faces coastal erosion challenges.
