A recent site visit back to Howgills wetland project highlighted the critical importance of ground investigations. No amount of desktop assessments could have prepared us for the insights gained during trial pitting. Convincing clients of the value of upfront ground investigations can be challenging, but the relatively small cost always pays off in the long run. In this case, our findings will help optimize the design, reduce costs, enhance environmental benefits, and mitigate risks throughout the wetland's lifetime. Next steps: securing funding for the construction phase and obtaining planning and environmental permits. Stay tuned for more updates!

Brilliant site visit recently on Shiel Burn undertaking a catchment walkover and survey of culverts and #ReservoirSafety. #HydrohubConsultingLtd is assessing culvert conveyance capacity alongside flows predicted by multiple flood estimation methods. Culvert blockage is possible on forested catchments like this. Assessing the impacts of blockage on design flood levels is critical to robust #FloodRiskAssessments in line with #SEPA guidance.

We're proud to be collaborating with Costain Group PLC providing hydraulic design support for multiple #WWTW upgrades in the south of England. Working alongside civil, process, MEICA and many other disciplines, we’ve been designing the retrofit of new assets into existing works with tight hydraulic constraints. Improving wastewater treatment capacity and increasing river water quality is the goal- something we at #HydrohubConsultingLtd are passionate about! #HADES #HydraulicModelling Photo credit: Dominic Gray.

We had a great site visit with The Lune Rivers Trust scoping out potential #wetland designs to increase habitat diversity on this heavily grazed pasture. It was a welcome sunny day in the #HowgillFells joining the dots between hydrogeology, hydrology, ecology, farming and engineering. Can’t wait to help develop the concept into a design. #HydrohubConsultingLtd
