Environmental works involving a Preliminary Risk Assessment and Ground investigation report of a site which was to be demolished ahead of the build of a multi-storey residential scheme.

Residential - North West

Project Overview

Located in Manchester City Centre a short distance from Piccadilly railway station the development plans comprise the demolition of the existing building and the erection of a multi-storey residential scheme.

Phase 1 Preliminary Risk Assessment was required to support the planning application with ground investigation required within an active warehouse and service yard requiring liaison between the client, landowner and tenant to ensure the warehouse and service yard were able to operate while also providing the design information from which feasibility plans could be taken through to detailed designs.

The works were co-ordinated in a phased manner with all parties kept up to date on progress and changes throughout the ground investigation works which have been successfully completed. We are currently awaiting geotechnical laboratory results before producing the Interpretive Phase 2 Ground Investigation report.
