"What was great to me as a developer: he got on with and dealt with it consistently, I did not need to keep driving it; Ian got on and did it, whatever it took, he kept on going. Brilliant, thank you!!!"

Ilminster Medical Centre

Whilst at WSP Ian was contacted by the developer client through his lawyer to assist in resolving a problematic highways adoption issue.  With Practical Completion of the Medical Centre weeks away, the relevant approvals had not been granted to permit the required highway works to commence.

Ian helped to facilitate meetings with highway officers and the client team, filling vital gaps in the documentation and helping to broker an agreed temporary access arrangement so the doctors could move in to their shiny new premises.

The client asked Ian to continue advising at AWP and further highway officer requirements were dealt with allowing a start for highway works which are now complete.  The access is now provided as originally intended.
