Beverley South Residential Development

Alan Wood & Partners (AWP) has been involved in the development since the 2015 planning stage.

Engineering and Design Factors

Designing roads, sewers, and Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) for residential developments involves complex engineering and logistical challenges. Sewer systems must efficiently manage both surface water and wastewater while meeting environmental and regulatory standards. Integrating SuDS requires innovative flood management and water quality solutions. Securing S104 and S38 approvals requires collaboration with local authorities like East Riding of Yorkshire Council, Yorkshire Water, and the Beverley and North Holderness Internal Drainage Board. The project demands careful planning, ongoing coordination, and adaptability as the design evolves, ensuring accuracy and compliance with updated requirements.

Description of the Works

AWP provided the Flood Risk and Drainage Assessment during the planning phase and later managed the S104, S38, private drainage, and external works in three phases, ensuring continuity in levels, drainage, and alignment. A roundabout off the Beverley bypass, the spine road, and Park & Ride bus access, were also part of the design package, as was foundation designs specific to each house’s conditions and load requirements, plus earthworks for embankments, highways, and plots, based on geo-environmental and civil requirements.
