Multi-disciplinary resources enable RPS to provide the full range of services to complete strategic and site-specific flood risk assessments. We understand the industry and our established relationship with regulators facilitates timely delivery of quality projects that meet individual client needs. Our phased approach minimises incurred costs and provides information to clients when required. We provide initial desk studies; qualitative and quantitative assessments for new and existing developments; liaison with regulatory bodies; surface water run-off calculations; drainage impact assessment; hydraulic modelling to establish flood levels and flows; breach analysis of flood defences; floodplain compensation proposals; and design of flood mitigation schemes. We make flood risk assessments accessible to all parties in the planning process – with our reporting and mapping services communicating policy requirements and our mitigation proposals providing a firm platform to inform detailed design.
