Commercial

 

 

Waterman Boreham has gained extensive experience from working on a wide range of commercial developments and understands the demands of each individual scheme, from small individual units to large city centre office developments, including mixed use schemes.

The company’s knowledge means that it can provide transport-related advice to commercial developments which will anticipate and avoid common issues, while presenting the optimum solution.

This involves developing assessment methods to satisfy local planning requirements and ensures the development functions efficiently, particularly with regard to access, car parking and servicing by a range of vehicle types.

With any commercial development it is important that it is accessible by a range of transport modes to maximize the viability of the development. This also ensures the development complies with local and national transport policies.

Within a constantly evolving regulatory and planning environment, clients benefit from our up-to-date knowledge and expertise, ensuring that developments comply with the latest standards. This allows us to support planning applications with transport statements or comprehensive transport assessments. With local authorities placing more emphasis on travel behaviour, travel plans have become an important component of planning applications for commercial developments.

Our Approach

It is vital that solutions maximise the benefits to the client while being acceptable to the local authority. Boreham has an unrivalled ability to work within multi-disciplinary teams when formulating scheme designs and supporting those schemes through the planning process.

Boreham’s network of offices throughout the UK and Ireland gives us a detailed understanding of local issues and close working relationships with local highway authorities, planning authorities and passenger transport executives. This is vital in gaining the support of the statutory authorities for mixed use schemes.

Our extensive experience of commercial developments ensures that, from the start we are in a position to understand the key issues that need addressing and provide our clients with expert transportation and highway advice in the development of scheme proposals.
