PROJECT DESCRIPTION

BWB Consulting provided extensive support to IM Properties in their successful tender to partner Birmingham City Council in the development and delivery of the 71 Hectare Peddimore site, northeast of Birmingham.

The development will provide up to 40 hectares of land for manufacturing, logistics and supporting uses alongside extensive landscaping and pedestrian facilities, and major works to the A38 and surrounding highway network. As part of the delivery team supporting Birmingham City Council/IM Properties, BWB are providing a variety of services including; utilities procurement and management, transport & highways strategy and design, Environmental Impact Assessment, civil and structural engineering, flood risk and hydrological studies, land and contamination investigations, and air quality assessment work.

BWB sister organisation DEETU have provided digital information support throughout the consultation process using their Explore platform to provide interactive content for the public to engage with. The proposed development is due to commence works on the site infrastructure (including 750,000m3 earthworks exercise and approximately 1.5km of new highway) and A38 highway works (delivery of a new 100m ICD signalised at grade roundabout) in Summer 2019 with first occupations anticipated summer 2021.
