Site analysis and design

We understand that a substantial amount of time and effort is required to develop a concept or sketch scheme for a site, even before a proposal is submitted at the pre-application stage. We can help to investigate your site at the early stages, carry out analysis and produce a parameter plan that will provide the foundations for your initial site design. 

A parameter plan can identify issues and provide guidance on matters like: preferred points of access, locations for SuDS Infrastructure, ecological buffers, trees that should be retained, areas of open space, highway infrastructure and developable areas. The plan is a great tool for pre-application discussions.

In addition we can engage with you at an early stage to develop your site layout prior to submitting a planning application. For more information visit Site feasibility review .

Due to the variables associated with different sites and this type of work, a quote will be provided on a case by case basis.
