Dyfnant Wind Farm, Wales

We undertook a comprehensive landscape and visual impact

assessment (LVIA) for a proposed Nationally Significant Infrastructure

Project (NSIP), involving erection of 32 wind turbines over 100m tall,

sub-station and 132 kV electrical connections to the National Grid,

on behalf of Scottish Power Renewables. This included desk and field

survey work, consultation, inputs to the design process/mitigation

measures, and reporting of landscape and visual effects (including

cumulative effects). The LVIA work included preparation of scheme

and cumulative Zones of Theoretical Visibility (ZTVs), wireframes,and photomontages, using WindFarm software. We also prepared the

Shadow Flicker Assessment for the scheme.

We undertook a comprehensive landscape and visual impact assessment (LVIA) of the proposed Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP),

involving creation of caverns for underground gas storage, pumping and sub stations,electrical connections and gas interconnector pipeline, on

behalf of Halite Energy. This included desk and field survey work, consultation, inputs to the design process/mitigation measures, and reporting

of landscape and visual effects (including preparation of photomontages). We provided expert witness services for the initial public inquiry and

landscape and visual advice for the most recent examination in public.

The scheme provides a 2.8km dual carriageway bypass carrying the

A46 between Coventry and Stratford-upon -Avon over the M40, west of

the existing motorway junction. Landscape considerations have been

paramount throughout our involvement in feasibility/assessment, public

consultation, public inquiry, design and construction. In particular, we

have helped to achieve appropriate design in response to the nearby

Sherbourne Village Conservation Area and the involvement in sustainable

drainage design to feed run-off through a system of wetlands which provide

attenuation, remove contamination, and incorporate habitat creation

measures. In recognition of the standard of environmental design the

project has received a designers Excellent CEEQUAL Environmental Award.

Olympic Park and Legacy, London

The Olympic Park and surrounds has and will continue to entail rapid

development within a highly complex planning context. During the

process, we have provided landscape architecture and open space

parameters advice in respect of Hyders contract to provide environmental

and sustainability advisory services to the Olympic Delivery Authority

Planning Decisions Team and London Legacy Development Corporation.

We have undertaken a townscape and visual impact assessment for the

proposed residential development on behalf of East Thames Group,

involving tall buildings and corresponding assessment with due regard for

the Commission for Architecture and Built Environment/English Heritage

Guidance and the London View Management Framework. In order to assess

its impact, the visual influence of the development was modelled using

Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) remote sensing data this enables

the three-dimensional relief map of cityscape (including buildings) to be

taken into account in visibility mapping.

Hyder was appointed to provide engineering and environmental

consultancy for Londons Crossrail project - Europes largest

infrastructure project. Under this framework Hyder was awarded the

design and appraisal of Whitechapel (shown opposite) which will provide

underground connections to Crossrail, London Underground and the East

London Line. Hyders landscape architects worked in collaboration w ith

the Crossrail design team to provide t ownscape and visual appraisal and

advisory services during the planning stages.

We use our understanding of sites and their

context to fully evaluate development

opportunities. As part of multi-disciplinary

teams, we examine the range of physical and social

considerations, including the water env ironment,

wildlife and habitats, l andform and geology, local

character/identity, and accessibility, to informstrategies for the public realm, green infrastructure

and cohesive masterplans. This is supported by long-

standing experience of st akeholder engagement

and public consultation. Guided by the information

gathered at the early stages of a project, we str ive to

deliver innovative and sustainable design solutions

that are rooted in place.

We fully embrace the range of design communication

tools and techniques from high quality had drawn

graphics to 3D visualisation and BIM (Building

Information Modelling)/COBie (Construction

Operations Building Information Exchange).

Shoreham Port

Hyder was commissioned by Shoreham Port Authority (SPA) to prepare

a port masterplan. The Port Masterpl an has helped to demonstrate a

contribution to the regional and nat ional economy and secure SPAs

future as a Trust Port. The masterpl an process also involved working with

partners to meet local regeneration objectives, particularly in relation

to the seafront public realm. Stakeholder consultations with tenants and

regeneration partners were held throughout the masterplan process to

provide opportunities to contribute to t he proposals.

Hyder was commissioned by Brookhouse, as part of a multi-disciplinary

team, to prepare an urban mixed-use masterplan and public realm design

for this historically important quarter of Preston. The site was occupied

by the former Horrocks textile producers, which formed an important

design reference in place-making. Integration of retail proposals, detailed

analysis of pedestrian connectivity, and future development opportunities

were key to the proposals. The design principles for the public realm were

conceived through comprehensive urban analysis.

Horrocks Quarter, Preston

Hyder was commissioned by MEPC to produce a master plan for this

mixed-use development site in central Leeds. The major challenge was

to design a temporary landscape that retains important elements of the

former brownfield site, whilst allowing for public access and laying the

foundations for a more permanent landscape. The heart of the scheme

is the development of a new public square around the historic Lifting

Tower, which contributes to a strong sense of place, together with

introducing flexible spaces for recreation. The scheme reflects MEPCs

substantial commitment to the area, which is vital to the success offuture regeneration.

The whole exercise turned out to be extremely worthwhile,

both internally and externally to our stakeholders

This has given us a great foundation for the strategic

development of the port and we are very pleased with it.
