Successful development planning is not just about location. Accessibility and connectivity are critical factors that can affect the potential of a site. People will only come to live, work and play at places if they can arrive, move around easily and conveniently, and connect. Development planning has the potential to facilitate wider regeneration objectives, smooth the planning permission process, identify a city’s long-term transport needs and support sustainable development, including rapid decarbonisation.
Steer has been providing transport planning solutions for public and private sector clients around the world for 45 years. In this time, we have worked in the commercial, leisure, residential, healthcare, retail, education, aviation and energy sectors and have written best practice guidance on key topics such as preparing transport assessments and parking management. Our team specialise in devising cost-effective transport strategies which maximise access to and around developments by all modes whilst, at the same time, minimising developer liabilities. We are at the forefront of deriving Decide and Provide transport strategies rather than Predict and Provide, and have a strong commitment to maximising sustainable travel options.
We help clients identify the redevelopment potential of land around the world. We advise upon initial feasibility and access requirements and then support planning applications by preparing the detailed transport documentation. We assist with negotiating legal agreements and undertake the detailed design and implementation of highways improvements. Our core offer includes:
Yes, you are in the right place. After 40 years, we have changed our name from Steer Davies Gleave to mark our growing international footprint and our expanding portfolio into sectors beyond transport.
