Services
Flood Risk Assessment
We produce detailed flood risk assessments for planning applications in line with NPPF and Environment Agency requirements. Our reports evaluate fluvial, surface water, groundwater, and reservoir flood sources for residential and commercial sites. Clients receive clear mitigation recommendations to satisfy local authority validation checks.
Surface Water Management
We design sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) that manage runoff rates and volumes to greenfield equivalence. Our strategies incorporate infiltration, attenuation, and treatment components tailored to ground conditions and layout constraints. Developers gain adoptable drainage solutions that meet LLFA and water company standards.
Travel Plan
We prepare residential and commercial travel plans that promote sustainable transport modes and reduce single-occupancy car trips. Each plan includes measurable targets, monitoring frameworks, and appointment of a travel plan coordinator. Local authorities accept our documents to discharge planning conditions efficiently.
Utilities Planning
We assess existing utility capacity and coordinate connections for electricity, gas, water, and telecommunications networks. Early engagement with statutory undertakers identifies reinforcement costs and programme risks before detailed design. Clients benefit from coordinated multi-utility strategies that avoid late-stage abortive works.
