PROJECT DESCRIPTION

BWB has played a key role in the development of one of the UK's most significant Enterprise Zone developments undertaken as a joint venture between Derbyshire County Council and Henry Boot Developments. Markham Vale offers industrial buildings ranging from 3,000 to 750,000 sq ft in floor-plate size.

BWB was initially commissioned to produce the specifications for all the remediation, utilities and enabling infrastructure provision for the former Markham Colliery and the earthworks remodelling for the entire site.

Subsequently, we delivered a broad range of pre-planning services for each individual plot, together with civil and structural engineering designs for the various buildings, together with earthworks validation reports for individual plots.
Our planning support services included noise and air quality, flood risk assessment, transport planning, site investigation and earthworks validation.

Key Challenges

Our range of planning inputs on each individual plot has included noise and air quality, flood risk assessment, transport planning, site investigation and earthworks validation. This has been followed by detailed design of the drainage, internal floor slabs and associated machinery pits, earthworks, external works and structural frame.
