Providing you with solutions since 1997

COTTEE Transport Planning offers consulting services to analyse and solve Transport problems arising from development schemes. We work with our clients and their consultant teams from start to finish, focusing on their needs while producing new ideas, and developing effective strategies to achieve positive outcomes.

​

Development projects can have implications for roads, public transport, cyclists and pedestrians. In addition, car parking, servicing and Travel Planning need to be addressed.

​

To achieve successful outcomes these issues need to be addressed by experts.

We identify key transport issues, analyse them and find solutions so our clients realise their development aims. This is achieved by our team of specialists who have an in-depth understanding of the planning process and the skills needed to negotiate successful outcomes with planning and highways officers.

ST JAMES DOVER – RETAIL, RESTAURANT, HOTEL AND LEISURE

St James is located a short distance from the Port of Dover and a short walk from local transport in the town. COTTEE undertook Transport Master Planning through to a Compulsory Purchase Order / Stopping Up Order Inquiry culminating in a Transport Assessment which involved successful negotiations with Kent Highways and Highways England to deliver this key regeneration project for Dover. Key issues involved parking, servicing, and impact on the key A20 trunk road route into Dover port A20 immediately adjacent to the site.
