Supporting a new sports pitch for South Morningside Primary School Malcolm Hughes Land Surveyors has supported a collaborative community project to deliver a new multi-sports pitch for pupils at South Morningside Primary School in Edinburgh. The project brought together Big Hearts Community Trust, the City of Edinburgh
Why accurate survey data is important for a project’s success Your initial site survey dictates every decision that follows. If geospatial data is flawed, it has a ripple effect. Inaccurate or incomplete site information can lead to project delays and severe safety risks. True precision requires a combination of capture
With close to 50 years of surveying experience, Malcolm Hughes Land Surveyors has had the opportunity to support projects of all shapes and sizes across the UK. Recently, our team was pleased to use that experience a little differently by supporting the Bramble Woods project in Catterick. As part
Why monitoring matters during live bridge construction Because bridge construction teams work near active motorways or railways, public safety and programme delays are at stake, leaving very little room for error. Mitigating these risks means taking away any uncertainty on site. The way to do this is to get the
The execution of modern transport infrastructure projects and the management of existing assets is experiencing a major transformation. As networks expand and assets age, the engineering challenges surrounding them grow exponentially more complex. Today’s transport projects are dictated by compressed delivery programmes, stringent regulatory oversight, and an unforgiving spotlight on
What is a monitoring survey and when is it needed? In infrastructure, movement matters. Even the smallest shift in structural or geotechnical features can have massive implications for safety, compliance, and long-term asset performance. A monitoring survey is used to measure and track this movement, deformation, or structural
