In 2017, a new University Strategy was launched to offer strategic direction for Durham University over a ten-year period.

FaulknerBrowns Propose Community Velodrome Scheme in Canada

James Taylor-Foster — Sat, 26 Apr 2014 01:00:00 +0000

British based FaulknerBrowns Architects have proposed plans for "one of only two velodromes in recent memory being planned" in the city of Edmonton, Canada. In a place where winters are cold and long, reaching -20 degrees celcius, the facility can be adapted for both indoor and outdoor use throughout the year. Clad in Canadian timber and polished stainless steel shingles wrapping around the building like a "twisted ribbon resembling the twisted sinuous cycle track," the scheme will be only the second major indoor cycle track facility in the country.
