Turning ideas and visions into a plan of action

Throughout the project planning and development phase, we apply our worldwide engineering, procurement, and construction experience to deliver smart, sustainable infrastructures and cities. From urban highways and new industrial zones, to rail corridors and national infrastructure development, every project—no matter its size, complexity, or location—benefits from our expertise and experience. We know what it takes to get the job done and done well.

A master plan should take the best of the environment it will be integrated into and enhance, support and resolve the challenges that currently exist there. The master plan can be as small or as large in scale as it needs to be in order to address the particular issues at play and can apply to both rural and urban settings.

The main types of master plan are:

Development led – focussing on the creation of new commercial/residential spaces

Landscape led – providing improved biodiversity/habitat, creating new parkland and open spaces (for example by repairing and restoring former open-cast mining areas)

Socially led – creating entirely new settlements through urban regeneration that targets areas experiencing deprivation. Examples include Stratford in East London, and Poundbury in Dorset
