Highway Design
From minor residential estate roads through to larger offsite highway improvement schemes, IDL can produce fully designed and detailed packages, submitted to the Highway Authority / Highways Agency for approvals pursuant to Section 38 / 278, etc.
Layouts would comprehensively detail the horizontal alignments and geometry of the Highway, complete with road markings & traffic signs annotated as appropriate in accordance with 'The Traffic Signs Regulations & General Directions'.
Road longitudinal sections would be generated to address the vertical design of the highway complete with annotation to denote positions of gullies, traffic calming measures, etc.
Highway construction details would be prepared in accordance with the 'Highway Authority's Specification' with due regard to site specific ground conditions, planning constraints and client expectations.
Technical Submissions
Typically, all building works whether internal or external require a degree of 'consent' from Local Authority or other statutory body.
We would submit plans & details on your behalf for technical issues such as:
- Section 38 / 278 Highway Works (Highway Authority)
- Designated Roads Approval (Highways Agency)
- Section 104 / 106 Sewer Works (Water Undertaker)
- Land Drainage Consent (E.A. or Land Drainage Authority)
Submissions direct (or via yourself) for Building Regulations Approval, Planning Consent, etc could also be made where appropriate.
All submissions would be followed up in consultation with yourself, until such time as a formal notice of approval had been received and draft agreements put in place.
Our primary aim is to secure all approvals prior to commencement on site, thus reducing the risk of abortive works, through late specification changes.
IDL is so confident that we can deliver this, that it is standard pricing policy to withhold invoicing a percentage of the design fee until approvals are secured.
