Residential Development
A new residential development consisting of 89 dwellings across two apartment blocks and 18 individual dwellings surrounded by public open space and amenity areas in the heart of Hinckley in Leicestershire.

The assessment included detailed junction capacity analysis as well as predicted trip generation calculations to satisfy the requirements of LCC.
