Summary

Project Overview

Client: Epsom Girls Grammar School

Our Approach

Parking Demand and Impact Assessment
TPC analysed current and projected parking demand for the theatre and associated spaces, identifying potential impacts on the surrounding road network. We evaluated both peak event usage and day-to-day operational needs.

Traffic Impact Assessment and Consent Support
Our team prepared a comprehensive Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) to support the resource consent application. We worked closely with the Local Authority to address traffic-related concerns and ensure the development could proceed without adverse effects on local transport operations.
