Planning & Development

ACS Consulting (London) commonly provide expert advice to Architects, Town Planners and Developers during the process of planning applications, which serves to address the arboricultural implications of proposed schemes. The preparation of Arboricultural Implication Studies, Tree Protection Strategies and Risk Assessments are essential parts of development schemes that integrate successfully with the environment - we operate the latest AutoCad software to enable the preparation of high quality Tree Surveys and Tree Protection Plans.

Robust tree protection fencing is essential when construction works has the potential to impinge upon tree condition.ACS Consulting (London) has considerable experience in the management of trees protected by Tree Preservation Orders, Conservation Areas and/or Planning Conditions.

 We regularly provide advice on applications for maintenance or where appropriate, tree removal.

Our advice can be particularly useful in the process of planning applications and appeals.

The protection of trees within development schemes has improved in recent years and it is a pre-requisite of planning approval that trees are afforded effective protection at the early stages of construction. ACS works with developers to identify the trees to be retained and to subsequently oversee the implementation of the tree protection measures which are set out in BS 5837:2005 'Trees in relation to construction - Recommendations'.
