Development & Planning ____________________________________________
Volterra's Development and Planning services include:
We provide bespoke research and analysis services to private and public sector organisations with diverse Development and Planning needs. Our experience ranges from residential and commercial led developments through to specialist retail, unique leisure or largescale transport infrastructure.
Our expert economic analysis:
- Supports developers in their goals to achieve planning permission
- Helps local and regional bodies to understand their risks and opportunities
- Assists government departments in assessing the impacts of proposals
- Provides potential investors with independent analysis on the financial feasibility and potential returns on property investments
Our Development and Planning team is led by Bridget Rosewell, one of the UK's most influential and respected economists, who has provided expert witness testimony at many high profile public inquiries. For a recent example, please see the Crowthorne development case study.
Volterra's property team has unrivalled knowledge of the dynamics of local property markets and their economics. As well as using statistical analysis, our techniques allow for input from market experts working on the ground to present a combined qualitative and quantitative approach to property economics.
Volterra believe that every scheme is different and therefore the impacts must be estimated carefully and transparently. Our consultants work alongside our clients to help them through all aspects of their proposals.
We have estimated the economic impact of proposed eco-towns, a niche supermarket in a local area of Birmingham, a racecourse, a multi-purpose entertainment arena, through to the productivity and agglomeration benefits accruing to the whole of London as a result of Crossrail.
