We were appointed by the client to develop a planning approved scheme to a full tender package of information to enable the tender and construction of this project.
There were numerous constraints imposed on our landscape proposal by the existing site conditions. There are a high number of trees on site, many of which were covered by TPO’s. The topography of the site has a significant fall, in excess of 10m from one corner of the site to the other. From a cost perspective we were tasked with finding solutions to minimise the volume of fill to be carted off site.
Our proposals accommodated the needs of vehicular access to undercroft parking, compliance with the DDA and the access needs of refuse and delivery vehicles. In addition our proposals needed to deliver a meaningful public open space at the heart of this scheme.
The planting for this scheme was specified to create a number of distinct zones across the site, provide all year round interest and to provide food and shelter for our native fauna.
