“We understood the client’s urgency and the project’s ecological sensitivities. Our experienced team provided a survey and a pathway for future development in compliance with environmental standards.”
Avaro Midlands Limited contracted the Ecology Services Division of RSSI for an ecological survey of the Wharf Road Development at Kings Norton, Birmingham. The £1.6k project spanned three weeks and was essential to secure planning permission to construct 14 residential dwellings. The previous survey had expired, and the newly acquired land’s canal-side location posed access difficulties, halting the client’s development efforts.

Project Duration
3 Weeks
The project required a qualified and experienced ecologist to lead on-site visits and conduct comprehensive surveys. The team’s competencies in ecological assessments were augmented by tablet technology for mapping and accessing Local Records Centre data. Despite the ongoing nature of the project and the anticipation of further recommendations, the value delivered thus far has been in re-establishing the viability of the client’s development plans in an environmentally compliant manner.
While the project report is pending finalisation, initial feedback suggests that the work conducted will greatly facilitate the client’s planning permission process.. Additionally, recommendations for further ecological work indicate RSSI’s thorough and proactive approach, providing the client with a comprehensive ecological framework for their development project.
