SFL Mobile Radio installs Greenwich Square crane communications and announces Tottenham stadium plans

SFL Mobile Radio, a supplier and installer of radio systems, has recently deployed its digital crane hands-free system for crane and banksman communications on the Greenwich Square brownfield regeneration scheme site in London. SFL has also announced that it will be supplying dual hands-free crane radio systems for the ongoing Tottenham Hotspur F.C. stadium development.

The communications for the three-hectare Greenwich Square site are being used by Mace Group, an international consultancy and construction company. Before the redevelopment the site used to be the Greenwich District Hospital and SFL have fitted a digital hands-free radio application to aid crane operations. This is installed within the cab of the crane and is controlled by heavy duty, compact foot pedals for communication to the banksman’s Motorola Solutions DP4400 radio.

The Tottenham Hotspur F.C. stadium development includes a 61,000-capacity stadium, estimated to be costing £750m, and is part of the Northumberland Development Project aiming to build a football stadium to replace White Hart Lane as the home stadium of Tottenham Hotspur.

The development plans also include 579 new homes, 180 room hotel, local community health centre, the ‘Tottenham Experience’ – a Spurs museum and club shop, extreme sports facility and the already complete Lilywhite House. This contains a supermarket, university technical college and new club administration buildings.
