David Lock Associates announces Promotions

I read the recent announcements that the Commission for BBBB have decided to start their activities with a 'call for evidence' with a sinking heart. Am I alone in thinking this is absolutely the wrong place to start?

South Cambridgeshire District Council yesterday resolved to grant planning permission for a new settlement at Waterbeach Barracks and Airfield, in Cambridgeshire.

DLA is excited to be able to offer an additional service to our clients following the success of our Systems Designer Daniel Gates in recently passing his Commercial Drone Operator License.

I recently took part in a panel discussion with Planning Futures[1] on the topic of planning for SME builders. Since the 1980s, small housebuilders have significantly declined from more than 12,000 companies in the late 1980s to around 2,500 in 2017[2].

Congratulations to DLA's Assistant Urban Designer and Planner Helen Hepher who has recently been awarded a Fred Roche Travel and Study Award.

David Lock looks at whether driverless vehicles will solve our transport problems.

A master plan prepared by DLA for a new garden neighbourhood adjoining Beccles and Worlingham in East Suffolk has been adopted as part of a Local Plan.

DLA's masterplanning tool CHLOE has been shortlisted in the 2019 Planning Awards for 'Use of New Technology in Planning'. Developed in-house by DLA, CHLOE is an interactive mapping and reporting tool that promotes discussion and engagement by allowing its users to engage and contribute to the design process.

DLA’s Owen Reading has won the award in the student category at this year’s National Urban Design Awards.
