Ken added "Promotion of such a facility in Perthshire will maintain the County’s status as being one of the UK’s premier tourist destinations. Millard Consulting's involvement has focussed on infrastructure delivery and sustainability with services provided on highway access and traffic impact; drainage and utility provisions; environmental management and efficiency.

We are proud to have been part of the initial delivery team taking the project from feasibility stage through to planning approval and being associated with the award winning practice of McKenzie Strickland Architects and Strathtay Developments who have brought reality to a lifelong vision for the area of Loch Tay."

Result for Rackheath

Millard Consulting, has welcomed the successful shortlisting of the Rackheath Ecotown after playing a central role in the scheme. Millard has been at the forefront of this new technological approach; advising the promoters on traffic and transportation for all aspects of the new development. This has included travel modes, travel planning based on carbon budgets, water cycle strategies, flood risk analysis, foul water drainage strategies, land contamination and remediation, utilities provision, waste disposal, lighting strategies, sustainable construction and BREEAM assessments. 

Rackheath Eco Town, which was given the go ahead in Housing Minister John Healey’s statement to the House of Commons on Thursday, is one of only four locations in the UK to be given approval. The development of the Eco Towns programme will demonstrate that people can live a low carbon lifestyle, without affecting their enjoyment of life. The proposals for low carbon living will benefit all areas of the resident’s lifestyle.

Millard Consulting opens another new office

Stirling

Millard Consulting have opened a third Scottish office. The new premises, in Stirling, will add to existing locations in Dundee - also a recent move, which saw staff from offices in both Perth and Dundee combine to a new office located on the Seabraes Yards - and Scone.

Employing over 100 people nationally, with approximately 30 staff based in Scotland, Millard Consulting is one of the largest consultants operating in Tayside.

The company, set up in Perth in 1986, has expanded to include seven offices around the UK with a head office in Norwich. Core areas of service include civil, structural and environmental engineering, as well as sustainability, transportation and flood modelling.

This contract was won in open tender, with SEPA receiving numerous other bids. The new contract is for two years.

Millard Consulting will continue to work alongside lead consultant, Bell Ingram, with whom Millard has been successfully providing a service to SEPA since 2001. For more information, click here.

Millard Consulting is supporting a petition bearing the signatures of 100 company directors, chief executives and partners - men and women who run Norfolk's biggest businesses and hold the fate of more than 30,000 jobs in their hands - to upgrade the A11.

Of great economic importance to the East Anglian region; the A11 connects Norwich and Norfolk to the rest of the UK. Millard Consulting, which has its Head Office based in Norwich, is acutely aware of the positive the effect that this improvement could have for the region.

This week Jonathan Cage, Group MD, joined representatives of the business community of Norfolk and Suffolk at a press conference to reveal the full extent of support for the upgrade.
