Infrastructure Engineering
Based in Belfast and Cork, we provide infrastructure engineering services from initial feasibility through to construction support.
Our civil infrastructure team designs roads, highways, junctions, urban improvement schemes, industrial and residential developments, and drainage networks across Northern Ireland, Ireland, and Great Britain. We work with public authorities, developers, and contractors to deliver practical infrastructure solutions.
Our Water Engineering Capabilities
Roads and Highway Design
We design new roads, highway improvements, and network upgrades across Northern Ireland, Ireland, and Great Britain. Our work includes junction design, pavement engineering, access roads, and urban street schemes.
Our road engineering designs address traffic flow, safety, and accessibility whilst meeting current design standards and local authority requirements. We design to adoptable standards for DfI Roads, Irish local authorities, and highways authorities across Great Britain.
Highway Structures Design and Approval
We provide structural design and technical approval services for bridges, culverts, and retaining walls required for road schemes. This includes new structures, assessment of existing infrastructure, and strengthening works.
All highway structure designs comply with relevant standards and departmental requirements. We coordinate CDM requirements and work closely with approving authorities to secure technical sign-off.
Drainage and Flood Risk Engineering
We design drainage systems and flood risk management solutions for roads, developments, and public realm schemes. Our services include traditional drainage networks, Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS), and flood risk assessments for planning applications.
- Traditional drainage: Road drainage systems, surface water management, foul drainage networks, and pumping stations where required.
- SuDS design: Attenuation basins, swales, permeable paving, and infiltration systems designed to adoption standards for NI Water, Irish Water, and local authorities.
- Flood risk management: Flood risk assessments, hydraulic modelling, flood protection measures, and climate resilience planning.
Our drainage engineers work with planning authorities, utility companies, and environmental regulators to deliver compliant drainage solutions.
Urban Improvement Schemes
We provide infrastructure engineering for urban improvement projects, public realm schemes, and active travel infrastructure. This includes streetscape improvements, traffic management, cycle lanes, and pedestrian facilities.
Our designs balance competing demands within urban environments whilst delivering long-term benefits for communities.
Industrial and Residential Development Infrastructure
We design civil infrastructure for industrial estates, commercial developments, and residential schemes across all scales.
- Industrial development: Access roads, HGV circulation areas, loading facilities, and surface water management for business parks and industrial estates.
- Residential development: Estate roads to adoptable standards, pedestrian and cycle infrastructure, drainage networks, and open space provision.
We work with developers, architects, and planners to deliver infrastructure that meets regulatory requirements and supports development viability.
Earthworks Assessment and Design
Our geotechnical and earthworks engineering covers slope stability, cut and fill analysis, and ground improvement solutions. We optimise earthworks balance, assess material suitability, and maximise reuse of site-won materials.
Our earthworks designs integrate geotechnical considerations with infrastructure requirements to deliver safe and economic solutions.
