Focused on commercial optimisation
We’re a trusted partner for a number of regional and national developers, bringing an extensive knowledge of commercial development throughout the UK. We work on enabling a scheme to be commercially optimised, while also minimising the severity of associated traffic effects.
Maximising trading opportunities
Our in-depth experience of retail developments means we understand the importance of maximising passing trade by acknowledging the relationship between the active retail frontages and the location of the various access points; how these might interact with SuDS drainage solutions or the risk of flooding.
We recognise that retail is a changing sector, and there is a clear need to treat these facilities as ‘places’ in their own right. We therefore draw on our technical expertise in support of wider commercial aspirations, while always being mindful of individual occupier requirements and maintenance
Our in-depth planning support
Whether it’s transport planning or highway design, flood risk or drainage strategies, we understand and plan for the potential pitfalls by taking a lead role in optimising the masterplan process. We support the planning process with diligent and robust evidence, and provide complete, accurate and cost-effective construction designs.
How we are applying our thinking
Talk to us
Our sector experience
We use our experience, insight and analytical approaches to respond to the exact needs of our clients; and identify and solve problems by targeting solutions that take in the bigger picture.
Residential
We’re often involved early in projects, supporting site-finding activities, and moving on to the masterplan process. Schemes range from a few dwellings with simple access and layout considerations, through to large, mixed use schemes requiring modelling of the wider network and strategic infrastructure improvements.
Renewables
We support development for wind, solar and energy-from-waste projects throughout the UK. This includes large scale wind farms to expansive solar schemes in areas of risk of flooding. As a corporate IEMA partner, we understand the specific legal requirements of environmental impact assessment.
Commercial & Industrial
Whether it’s transport planning or highway design, flood risk or drainage strategies, we understand the nuances of industrial and commercial development. We can take a lead role in optimising the masterplan process, support planning with robust evidence, and provide accurate, cost-effective construction designs.

Health & Wellbeing
Our team of experts has extensive experience of advising on all types of health and wellbeing facilities. We provide transport planning, highway, flood risk and drainage input across a range of developments, including primary and secondary schools, GP surgeries, pharmacies and dental practices.
Leisure
Every leisure development is different – whether it’s a new campsite, gym or stadium. The journey through the planning system is just the start. We ensure that fundamental engineering principles are ingrained in our solutions, to expedite the design and approval stages, and get contractors on site sooner.
