Leading Provider of Swept Path Analysis in Surrey
Swept Path Analysis
When it comes to highway design and planning in Surrey, one of the key aspects that cannot be overlooked, is swept path analysis, or otherwise known as sweep path. This crucial process helps ensure that vehicles can have safe access, egress, parking and turning while navigating junctions, roundabouts, and estate roads without any issues. At JG Highway Design Ltd, we specialise in providing comprehensive swept path analysis services to clients in Surrey and beyond. We use advanced software to accurately simulate vehicle movements and assess potential conflicts with surrounding infrastructure. Swept path analysis is particularly important in urban areas or small sites where space is limited and every millimetre counts! By conducting thorough analysis, we can identify potential design flaws with highway access, parking arrangements, turning areas and vehicle routing and make necessary adjustments to improve safety and efficiency.
Whether you want to optimise parking levels, create access to your property or a large-scale site and ascertain how construction vehicles can access and manoeuvre during construction phases, or provide adequate turning for delivery vehicles, swept path analysis is a critical step in the design and planning process.
Using Swept Path Analysis during the design process can save you a lot of time and money as the Highway Authority commonly asking for Swept Path Analysis to be provided within the application determination period.

Highway Access Design
At JG Highway Design Ltd, we have collaborated with a wide range of clients, from individual homeowners, landowners, architects, transport and highway consultants and developers providing them with full technical design drawings.
Having a ‘safe and suitable access’ plays a key role to the success of a planning application; this is an important requirement all developers must consider in order to comply with paragraph 108 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) which states ‘a safe and suitable access to the site can be achieved for all users’.
We can provide planning application drawings through Vehicle swept path analysis in surrey to satisfy both Local Planning and Highway Authority overcoming highway concerns designed in accordance with your Local Authority’s design guide, Manual For Streets 2 (MFS), Design Manual for Roads and Bridges (DMRB) and Traffic Signs Manual (TSM).
Whether it be for a small field access or agricultural site, a garden driveway conversion, a large residential site, industrial estate or for parking provision. We can deliver highway access design drawings which may include vehicle emerging and forward visibility splays, pedestrian visibility splays as well as visibility splay cross-section drawings in the vertical plane.
At JG Highway Design Ltd we use swept path analysis – or sweep path – which often serves as a crucial factor in gaining highway approval for planning applications. The inclusion of vital vehicles such as Refuse Collection Vehicles (RCV), Emergency Services, Supermarket Delivery Vehicles, and HGVs and more ensures that your access can be safe and suitable for all users.
