Landscape Planning

Landscape Planning plays a key role in development within the UK. Landscape planning and impact analysis contribute to a wise allocation of the resources of the land, helping to achieve the best results from the potential of a development site.

DEP can help a client realise the potential of a development site, relating a scheme to its context and its own benefits and constraints. We are able to address planning requirements for developers, liasing with utilities and environment agencies to ensure a site conforms to legislation and local development guidelines.

Ranging from private clients to commercial sustainable landscape projects, we are capable of procuring Landscape Impact Assessments, collaborative masterplanning, design and access studies, managing ecology and archaeology inputs and giving evidence at planning inquiries.
