Transport Planning & Highway Design

Our relationships with local highway authorities enable us to provide highly effective travel assessments and statements.

Our technical knowledge of the leading industry standards enables us to deliver travel plans that demonstrate your development’s sustainability. We can also act as travel plan coordinators to ensure that travel plan aims are consistently met.

In order to ensure a particular area of land can be developed, we offer a preliminary assessment. This information can then be used for the next stages in the development process.

Our technical expertise within this service means we can provide our clients with the highest quality information and guidance. This includes Section 278 Detailed Design.

We have excellent relationships with highway authorities throughout the country. We aim to avoid the need for planning appeals – but if they are needed, our extensive knowledge and experience allows us to provide clients with first class advice on this complex issue.

Where off-site public highway junction improvements have been identified during planning, Eddisons can thereafter administer the Section 278 detailed design and in so doing provide a seamless transition from planning through to construction. Eddisons have vast experience in dealing with public highway improvement schemes and over the years have built up effective working relationships with local authorities throughout the UK. Our design experience covers many different types of junction, access and pedestrian improvements including roundabouts, traffic calming, pedestrian facilities, signalised junctions, pedestrian crossing installations, priority junctions, mini-roundabouts and cycleways. Eddisons offers a comprehensive range of detailed design services utilising the latest software design tools in the highway design process including PDS, MX, Windes, Civil 3D, PDS Sign and Autotrack. Our detailed design services include 3D setting out, drainage design, signage design, road markings, construction material specification, preparation of construction drawings, cost advice, project management and preparation of as built drawings.
