Environmental Planning

 
  Randall Thorp’s skills in environmental planning have helped our clients on a range of projects with complex landscape issues.

In 1989 Pauline Randall successfully acted as an expert witness for the Cambridgeshire new settlement public inquiry. Her key evidence on landscape matters helped persuade the Inspector to recommend our client’s site for development. Since then the practice has specialised in many aspects of environmental planning. From small scale tree surveys to visual impact analysis for wind farms, our experience and skills have helped our clients successfully overcome planning problems to meet their project’s aims.
