The Heathway Pub project on the outskirts of Birmingham involved the redevelopment of a community pub site where access, parking and highway safety were central considerations. The existing highway arrangement was affected by congestion, informal parking and recorded conflict points nearby, requiring a layout that could improve access while protecting pedestrians and customers. The proposed one-way car park arrangement also needed to maximise parking provision without increasing conflict with surrounding traffic movements.
Civia was appointed as highways consultant to remodel the car park and access arrangements, adjust the footway and verge, and support measures to manage problem parking. We developed the layout around the client’s operational objectives and the highway authority’s requirements, incorporating bollards, road markings and access amendments through the Section 278 process. The final design improved parking efficiency, supported pedestrian safety and provided a more controlled highway arrangement around the redeveloped site.
