Highways

Safe, practical access is an important consideration in planning and delivering a development. Farrow Walsh provides highways and transport advice to help clients understand how their proposals connect with the surrounding road network and accommodate the people and vehicles using the site.

We support projects from early feasibility and planning through to highway and access design.

‍

Transport Evidence for Planning

We prepare transport assessments and travel plans to support planning applications and inform discussions with local authorities.

Considering transport requirements early helps identify potential constraints and establish what supporting information is needed. We work with the project team to address access, movement and the relationship between the development and its surroundings.

‍

Highway and Access Design

Our services include highway layouts, site access design and swept path analysis.

Swept path analysis checks whether vehicles can manoeuvre through a proposed layout, helping teams assess arrangements for deliveries, servicing and other necessary vehicle movements.

We coordinate these requirements with the wider site design so that access works alongside building positions, external levels and drainage.

‍

Working with Authorities and Stakeholders

We liaise with local authorities and relevant stakeholders to address technical requirements and respond to queries.

Where proposals affect existing roads or neighbouring communities, we consider the interfaces between the development and its surroundings, helping the team develop an approach that accounts for access, safety and disruption.
