Highway and highway drainage designs are complex processes that involve multiple stages, from initial feasibility studies to detailed route selection and environmental assessments. The main goal is to create roads that are safe, efficient, and environmentally sustainable. For highway drainage design, the focus extends beyond the road itself, ensuring proper water management to prevent flooding and maintain long-term infrastructure performance.
Key elements of the design process, including stakeholder engagement, public consultation, and utility coordination are essential for ensuring the project’s success. The end result is a highway that meets transportation needs while prioritising the safety, sustainability, and well-being of communities and the environment.
Here at Onn Point, our highway design consultants work closely with clients to understand the specific requirements of every project. From the initial planning to the final design, we focus on creating efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly roadways.
We also ensure our designs comply with all necessary regulations to meet the needs of the community and the environment. Get in touch with our consultants today to find out more.
Highway drainage design is vital to ensure that water is effectively managed on the road surface and surrounding areas. This helps prevent water accumulation that can lead to flooding, road damage and safety hazards.
By incorporating effective highway drainage design, highway infrastructure can better withstand extreme weather conditions and promote the longevity of the road network.
We prioritise environmental sustainability in all our designs. Our highway design consultants incorporate strategies that comply with sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS), which reduces the environmental impact of new roads. Our designs aim to minimise flood risks, promote biodiversity, and ensure that the highways integrate smoothly into the local ecosystem.
The duration of a highway design or highway drainage design project will vary depending on the complexity and the scope of the project. Simple projects like small road extensions may take a few months, while larger infrastructure projects can take a year or more.
