Highway, Transportation Planning and Traffic Engineering Consultants for Transport Statements, Transport Assessments and Green Travel Plans, servicing England.  Knowledgeable, competitive and fast.

We provide support to agents, architects, lawyers, town planners, surveyors, builders and individuals on small and large schemes.  We assist Councils and Highway Authorities with peer reviews of other parties’ traffic engineering related submissions.  We consider subtle variations that may exist between different local government authorities.  Every assessment is fine tuned to maintain its relevance to the local planning context.

We provide a hands-on approach to every one of our projects.  With each key senior staff having between 17 and 23 years’ traffic engineering experience, we are confident in being able to provide constructive input on traffic engineering matters from feasibility stages, right through to planning application submissions and, where circumstances dictate, planning appeals.

We are experienced with every conceivable land-use that may trigger the need for a traffic impact assessment -– apartments, bars, car washes, cafes / restaurants, child care centres, catteries / dog kennels, community centres, fitness centres / gymnasiums, galleries, drive-through premises (fast food, coffee, alcohol sales), hotels (accommodation) / motels, industrial units, industrial subdivision, licensed premises (gaming hall, tavern), medical centres, mine-site traffic management, mixed-use sites (residential and commercial), night clubs, offices, places of worship, recreational facilities, residential subdivisions, residential master plans, school master plans, shops, shopping centre developments, supermarkets, tuition centres and warehouses.
