Swept Path Analysis

Swept Path Analysis is a technical assessment used to demonstrate that vehicles can safely enter, exit, and manoeuvre within a site. It uses specialised software to simulate the movement of different vehicle types, such as refuse vehicles, delivery lorries, emergency vehicles, and construction traffic. This analysis helps ensure that site access routes, turning areas, loading zones, and parking layouts are suitable and compliant with local authority and highway requirements.

Swept Path Analysis is often required as part of planning applications, Construction Management Plans (CMPs), and transport assessments to confirm that proposed developments can operate safely without causing obstruction or risk to pedestrians, existing traffic, or surrounding infrastructure.

We ensure all assessments align with local authority guidance and help clients avoid delays by demonstrating safe and efficient vehicle access from the early design stage.
