Survey information for road corridors and associated infrastructure, from existing geometry to construction and handover records.
Road and infrastructure projects need survey information that follows the corridor and connects to existing works. The scope may include levels, cross sections, drainage features, alignment references and tie-ins, depending on the design or construction stage.
Survey House Group supports the geometric survey requirements of these projects. This service concerns measured positions and levels; traffic counts, pavement condition investigations and geotechnical testing are different appointments.
Agree the route, survey extent, chainage convention and required features before capture. Where previous data or control exists, identify how the new work must connect to it. Select field methods around the site conditions and the required deliverables.
Access, traffic arrangements and construction activity affect the survey programme. The appointment should identify who provides safe access and the relevant permissions. Concealed services require a separately defined investigation rather than assumptions based on visible roadside features.
No. This service addresses positions, levels and geometry for road and infrastructure projects. Traffic counts and transport-demand studies are different services.
Yes, where the required features and access are defined. Visible features, accessible invert levels and buried-service detection involve different scope considerations and should be specified separately.
Yes. The appointment should state whether it requires existing-site information, setting-out, checks during construction or an as-built record, because each stage has different inputs and timing.
Specify where sections are required and which existing interfaces influence the design. A narrow strip along the centreline may not capture the information needed for widening, connections or drainage outside that strip.
For drainage, identify whether the requirement is visible surface geometry, accessible invert levels, constructed records or utility detection. The brief should not use those terms interchangeably.
Layer and buried-feature records may need measurement before later work covers them. Agree the relevant hold points and the notification process with the contractor.
Retain the reference system and chainage conventions through the handover. If the design alignment changes, record how subsequent survey information relates to the revised design.
