Building near an airport, airfield or helipad requires careful consideration as there are many aspects of building development that may create an aviation impact, even during construction. It is vital that you understand the aviation risks associated with your building development early in your project timeline as they can cause costly delays to the planning process.
We have experience assessing these issues in the UK and internationally, so you can trust us to understand, explain and identify the best way forward for your building development to ensure the best chance of planning success.
How do building developments affect aviation operations and infrastructure?
Building developments primarily affect aviation operations in two ways: 1) as a physical obstruction or 2) through interference to electromagnetic signals. For example, a crane used during construction or the building itself may be deemed too tall to be safe considering the aviation operations in the vicinity. Signals broadcast by radar and navigation aid systems can also be affected, leading to higher pilot/Air Traffic Controller workload, increased environmental impacts and increased safety risks. It is therefore essential that you understand the impact your building project may have to ensure impacts can be minimised or mitigated fully.
How can we help?
We have over two decades of experience assessing aviation risks from the built environment. We understand not only the impacts, but also the wider implications that aviation effects can have on a project. We can also manage any consultation and utilise the stakeholder relationships we have established over the years to ensure you are given honest and accurate advice about your project. This will ensure there are no unwelcome surprises throughout the planning cycle.
