Aurecon is a leader in delivering strategic planning advice, assisting clients to navigate the statutory approval process to obtain the environmental and social licence to operate for transport, energy, aviation, defence, industrial, resources and chemicals, water and port projects and assets, and master planning for major landholdings and precincts.
Our planners work with clients to develop strategies, assess options, and undertake impact assessments to optimise the value of land-use decisions, shaping and planning this process. To help secure approvals and improve environmental performance, we use geospatial information platforms to centrally store, map and analyse environmental data in addition to engaging visual media and digital tools.
One example is digital environmental impact assessment reports that present complex technical data as interactive and user-friendly information on a digital platform. These transform tabled data and project information into annotated maps and 3D visualisations.
Our services are valuable for large-scale landholdings through to infrastructure assets and include:
- Urban planning policy and strategy development
- Site master planning
- Site and route options selection
- Approvals strategies
- Major project approvals
- Environmental Impact Assessment
- Land access
- Cultural heritage (archaeology) assessment and management
To optimise land use and obtain the environmental and social licence to operate, contact environmental planning and approvals lead, Stephen Cole, or urban planning lead, Jules Griffith.
