Site and infrastructure planning
Site and infrastructure planning
Skillful planning creates functional, sustainable and safe living environments.
Site and infrastructure planning
The aim of site and infrastructure planning is to create functional, sustainable and safe environments that combine smooth traffic, efficient infrastructure solutions and comfortable living conditions. During planning, we consider the environmental aspects such as water treatment, the use of reusable materials and the protection of biodiversity while ensuring economically sound solutions that work in the long term. The planning is supported by geotechnical investigations, measurements and geotechnical reviews of building projects.
Our comprehensive site and infrastructure planning services cover

Our site and infrastructure planning services
01
Street and transport planning
The goal is to create a safe, functional and environmentally friendly transport network that serves all users. The planning considers multiple factors that ensure the smoothness, safety and sustainability of transport. These include, for example, transport capacity, the coordination of different modes of transport and the environmental questions of stormwater management and minimising the impacts of noise and emissions.
02
Infrastructure planning
The planning covers all systems and networks that a built environment requires to function. These include, for example, water and sewerage networks, electrical and lighting systems, telecommunications networks and stormwater management.
03
Site and environmental planning
Site and environmental planning combines land use, biodiversity and the built environment. The aim is to create functional, comfortable and ecologically sustainable areas. The planning covers functionality, transport and accessibility, green areas and preparedness for climate change. Cultural history and other social factors are also essential.
04
Planning of industrial and logistics areas
The key factors when planning industrial and logistics areas are functionality, infrastructure efficiency and the management of environmental impacts. Since these areas require smooth transport, it is important to optimise traffic flows through, e.g., the placing of main routes, terminals and parking areas. The capacity of infrastructure, such as electricity, water and sewerage networks, must meet both current and future needs. Another integral part of sustainable design is the management of noise, emissions and stormwater. Green areas and landscaping integrate the area into its surroundings and reduce its environmental impact, and zoning ensures that the development of the area is compatible with other activities.
