Potential development conflicts between environmental and financial considerations need to be managed and resolved as early as possible to enable projects to progress from inception, through planning to development and fruition.
Redevelopment of brown field sites requires specialist site survey and land remediation work. Some of the cost of this reclamation can potentially be offset through the application for grants and funding associated with regeneration initiatives. This can be further supported through the sympathetic design of redevelopment in conjunction with any existing planning frameworks.
Achieving a successful regeneration project is a complex process of balancing the technical, political and communication requirements to deliver a result that is acceptable to all parties.
Our highly skilled, multi-disciplinary teams provide a complete range of solutions through every stage of the process in turning a contaminated or derelict site into an attractive development or amenity.
Within Europe, the pressure for development space is such that previously abandoned industrial (brown field) sites are viable for redevelopment and regeneration. Many such sites have water's edge frontage, offering wider potential for planning and redevelopment opportunities. These opportunities also bring challenges as the water's edge is very sensitive to change and can also be a harsh environment in which to build.
