Quantity surveying and claims support for walking, cycling and associated route improvements.
Active-travel projects can include paths, crossings, cycle routes, drainage and public-realm changes. Works often connect to existing roads, utilities and property access. The scope needs to distinguish new construction from alterations and reinstatement along each section.
Moving a kerb can also move the gully, expose a chamber and alter a shop entrance. The cost is not just the extra paving.
We follow the approved alignment through the quantities and affected trade packages, including utility adjustments and drainage. This produces a complete valuation with credits for work no longer needed, rather than a succession of disconnected extras.
Tactile paving, crossing levels and pedestrian routes must work with existing thresholds and junction geometry. Late design clarification can require relaying or additional local construction.
We use the priced detail and the designer's revised instruction to distinguish a design change from work needed to achieve the original accessibility requirement.
Shops, homes, bus stops and side roads can require short construction stages and repeated temporary routes. Changed access arrangements may add traffic measures and mobilisation without increasing the finished route length.
We check how the tender allowed for pedestrian routes, business access and temporary traffic measures. A daily record of released work areas can then show why the planned sequence became fragmented. Any additional setup or attendance is assessed from those changes and the resources used; a general percentage added to the route rate is not enough.
