Re-development of a 12 hectare former hospital site to form a low-rise residential housing estate. Significant cut / fill earthworks were undertaken at this sloping site in order to achieve an engineering balance and negate any requirement for retaining walls. Economical surface water drainage design required extensive negotiation with the Environment Agency and submission of a Flood Risk Assessment including detailed flood modelling.
