Frequently Asked Questions

A Construction Management Plan explains how construction works will be managed on site to minimise disruption, protect neighbours, and comply with planning conditions. It sets out working methods, site setup, access, environmental controls and safety measures in a clear, structured format for the planning authority.

A Construction Logistics Plan focuses specifically on deliveries, vehicle movements, access routes and site logistics. CLPs are commonly required for urban sites, constrained locations, or developments where traffic and highway impacts are a key concern.

This depends on the scale, location and nature of your development.

CMPs are commonly required for house extensions, loft conversions, refurbishments and small to medium developments.

CLPs are often required for larger residential schemes, commercial developments, or sites with restricted access or sensitive surroundings.

If you’re unsure, we can review your project and advise which document is required.

In many cases, yes. Local planning authorities frequently request CMPs or CLPs either:

As part of the planning application, or

As a condition that must be discharged before construction starts.

Requirements vary by council and site, which is why each plan must be tailored to the specific development.

Our standard turnaround is 3–5 working days from receipt of the required information.
For straightforward residential projects, plans are often completed at the faster end of this timeframe.

Typically, we ask for:

Architectural drawings or site plans

Site address and location details

Any planning conditions or council guidance already issued
