In our latest video, the Brookbanks civil engineering share some quick tips on a question that many developers and stakeholders face: What's a frequent post planning delay for civil engineering?
While securing planning consent is a major milestone, it’s often just the beginning of a complex journey. The team breaks down the key factors that can slow progress—and shares practical insights on how to navigate them.
Brookbanks advocates for a proactive approach—identifying critical conditions early and preparing discharge packages in parallel with technical design.
Delays post-planning are often avoidable, but only with the right foresight, coordination, and technical rigour. At Brookbanks, we work closely with clients to anticipate these challenges and keep infrastructure delivery on track.

As 2025 draws to a close, the planning industry finds itself at a pivotal moment. The latest Brookbanks podcast brings together leading voices from across the sector to reflect on whether this year delivered the transformation promised, and what lies ahead as we move into 2026.
When it comes to large-scale development, policy is the easy part. The real challenge? Turning planning requirements into deliverable masterplans that survive detailed design and actually work on the ground. That was the focus of our recent webinar, where we shared practical insights from the Brightwell Lakes project near Ipswich, a 2,000-home scheme shaped by complex ground conditions, mineral extraction, and sensitive transport corridors.
