We provide comprehensive civil engineering design services for housing, commercial, and educational developments. Our work includes highway design, drainage strategies, and external works packages. We ensure compliance with Section 278, 38, 104, and 106 agreements while prioritising sustainability and economic efficiency in all our projects.
Flood Risk Assessments
Our flood risk assessments comply with Environment Agency requirements and National Planning Policy Framework guidelines. We analyse historical flood data, design attenuation systems, and create sustainable drainage solutions. Our reports include flood compensation measures and drainage strategies for developments in flood-prone areas.
Transport Assessments
We prepare transport statements and assessments for residential and commercial developments. Our services include access appraisals, junction analysis, swept path studies, and sustainable travel assessments. We work closely with highway authorities to ensure compliance with local transport regulations and safety standards.
Drainage Strategies
Our drainage strategies incorporate sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and flow control measures. We design systems for 1-in-100-year storm events with climate change allowances, including private drainage solutions, adoptable systems, and existing network assessments using CCTV surveys and jetting.
Feasibility Studies
We conduct technical investigations to identify site constraints and development potential. Our feasibility studies cover access, drainage, flooding, and utility considerations. We provide masterplanning advice to maximise land value while meeting environmental and planning requirements for residential and commercial clients.
