LAND DEVELOPMENT

Services include:

• Expert witness testimony

Our engineering services support the full spectrum of land development needs.

We typically begin early in the project life cycle, consulting with landowners on purchase decisions. This leads to collaboration with planning consultants as plans and applications are developed. From there, our team prepares functional and detailed designs to secure permits and approvals.

With deep expertise and well-established industry relationships, we proactively anticipate and navigate approval challenges. Our business practices include checks and balances to manage timelines, budgets, and risks. Combined with cost-effective design and construction oversight, our goal is simple: Get it approved; get it built.

Our transportation engineering services complement Crozier’s ability to guide a project from concept to completion with the greatest certainty for our clients.

Our transportation team has grown to provide services across all our office locations, and is a recognized leader in the industry. We focus on transportation elements that bring real added value to a development project.

We will conduct an early evaluation of a land use change from a transportation perspective to anticipate site circulation and access concerns. Developing effective multimodal solutions is increasingly prioritized, as constrained urban environments no longer prioritize auto use. Having developed strong relationships with approval agencies, we will help advance your project and minimize unexpected costly design revisions.

• Masterplan and secondary plan consultation

• Access justification for site development

Whether your project is a 40-hectare subdivision going through draft plan approval or a road widening project, the Utility Infrastructure Group has the experience and expertise to design and manage utility installation and relocation projects from start to finish.

Our Construction Services Group will ensure that what is proposed can be constructed according to approvals and project schedule.

We will evaluate constructability, costing, and feasibility of a design to ensure that the completed project fully satisfies our clients’ needs and is built to plan and to code.

Our Construction Services Group works hand in hand with all the Crozier design service lines over the full project life cycle.
