At The JPP Group, we believe that sharing knowledge is an important part of supporting the wider industry. Recently, our Associate Director Caitlin Turley delivered a CPD session exploring Transport Planning and the Decide and Provide Approach.

Here Caitlin shares who need to be consulted.

A successful development doesn't happen in isolation.

Transport proposals can involve engagement with a range of statutory consultees and authorities, depending on the nature and location of a scheme. Engaging with the Highway Authority can be a really useful stage in determinising what level of detail is required when assessing the highway impact of a development, the documents required to support a planning application and identifying key issues prior to submission.

In addition to the highway authority, there are a number of organisations that may need to be considered, including:

• Local Planning Authorities
• National Highways
• Active Travel England
• Public Rights of Way Officers
• Fire Authorities
• Waste Authorities

Understanding the roles and requirements of the relevant consultees is an important part of the planning process. Early engagement can also help identify potential issues before they become obstacles later in the planning process.

🔹 Which consultee presents the biggest challenge on the projects you work on?

If you need assistance with any of these statutory consultees, do get in touch with [email protected] or [email protected], who will be happy to help.

Work experience is a valuable opportunity for young people to explore their interests, develop new skills and gain confidence in a professional environment.

Recently, we welcomed Maja to JPP for a work experience placement with our Business Support team, giving her the opportunity to gain first-hand insight into the world of marketing and business communications.

Here’s what Maja had to say about her experience:

“Spending the day with the JPP Business Support team has been an amazing experience. Making social media posts might seem easy as an individual, but when a business trusts you to design and write content that professionally represents them, it gives you a real sense of confidence.

The staff at JPP have made me feel so welcome. I’m currently writing my personal statement, and having practical experience that demonstrates my passion for marketing will be a massive help.”

Experiences like Maja’s highlight the importance of giving young people the opportunity to put their interests into practice, explore potential career paths and develop skills that will support them in their future education and careers.

At JPP, we’re proud to support opportunities that help young people build confidence, discover their potential and take their next steps towards their future.

A big thank you to Maja for spending the day with us. We wish her every success with her future studies and career!

ENGINEERING AROUND CHALLENGING GROUND CONDITIONS

Every site tells a different story.

Ground conditions can have a major impact on:

• Foundation solutions
• Earthworks
• Site levels
• Construction methods
• Drainage
• Project costs

At Arnold Lane, JPP encountered areas of made ground up to 10m deep.

Rather than treating this simply as a problem, our engineers worked with the geotechnical team to develop a coordinated solution. The result included detailed cut-and-fill design, staged excavation, ground improvement and material reuse.

Understanding what's beneath the site can be just as important as understanding what's being built on top of it.

At JPP, we believe work experience is a valuable opportunity for young people to explore potential career paths, develop new skills and gain an insight into the world of work.

Last week, we welcomed Casper Burn, who spent his work experience placement with our Civil & Structural Engineering and Development Planning teams.

During his time with us, Casper had the opportunity to explore engineering design, gain hands-on experience using CAD software and discover how engineers plan and design projects before construction begins.

Casper shared his favourite part of the placement:

“I enjoyed designing things in CAD because it was fun to see how people plan before they build.”

Throughout the week, Casper impressed the team with his positive attitude and enthusiasm. He produced 3D models, completed his work to a good standard, stayed engaged and asked thoughtful questions.

He also demonstrated strong communication and organisational skills, making a positive contribution throughout his placement.

Experiences like Casper’s highlight the importance of giving young people the opportunity to discover engineering, develop practical skills and see how classroom learning connects to real-world projects.

A big thank you to Casper for spending the week with us, and to our Civil & Structural Engineering and Development Planning teams for sharing their knowledge and supporting the next generation of engineers.

We wish Casper every success with his future studies and career!

JPP Construction Management is a part of The JPP Group. The team offers support throughout the life cycle of construction projects including Party Wall Surveying services.

Ever wondered what a Party Wall Surveyor actually does, or what you need to know before having a Party Wall Survey carried out?

Over the last few months we have been sharing our Party Wall Guide — a simple, clear and practical resource designed to help homeowners, neighbours and developers understand the process, their rights, and what to expect at each stage.

Whether you’re planning an extension, starting a new build, or just want to feel more confident about the Party Wall process, our guide will give you everything you need to move forward with clarity and peace of mind.

🔹 Part 4 - Party Wall Notices

A Party Wall Notice is a formal written notice served under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. It informs your neighbour (the “adjoining owner”) that you intend to carry out certain works that affect a shared wall/structure, a boundary, or nearby foundations.

The purpose is to give your neighbour fair warning, legal clarity, and a chance to consent or appoint a surveyor if they’re concerned.

Did you know that there are three core notice types?

🔹 Section 1 — Line of Junction: for building a new wall (building or party fence wall) at the boundary or astride it.

🔹 Section 2 — Party Structure (works to a shared wall/structure): e.g., cutting into a party wall to insert steel beams for a loft, raising or underpinning the party wall, or demolishing and rebuilding a party structure.

🔹 Section 6 — Adjacent Excavation (nearby foundations): excavating to a certain depth within 3m or 6m of your neighbour’s structure, depending on depth and footing geometry.

Take a look at our website to find out more about The JPP Group or email us at [email protected] if you want to find out more about how we can help you.

Introducing our Transport Planning CPD series - at The JPP Group, we believe that sharing knowledge is an important part of supporting the wider industry.

Recently, our Associate Director Caitlin Turley delivered a CPD session exploring Transport Planning and the Decide and Provide Approach. Here Caitlin shares what a transport planner actually does.

🔹 What does a Transport Planner actually do? 🔹

Transport planning is about much more than looking at traffic.

From the earliest stages of a development, transport planning can help unlock sites, assess feasibility and inform
how a development is designed.

At JPP, our transport planning expertise can help address a wide range of considerations, including:

• Safe access to development sites
• Masterplanning and development layouts
• Swept paths and visibility
• Car and cycle parking
• Walking and cycling infrastructure
• Public transport provision
• Trip generation and distribution
• The capacity of the local highway network

Getting transport considerations involved early can help ensure that movement, accessibility and connectivity are
considered alongside the wider development proposals.

This was one of the key themes explored by our Associate Director, Caitlin Turley, in her recent CPD session on
Transport Planning and the Decide and Provide Approach.

What transport consideration do you think is most important to address early in a development?
