As the largest specialist team in the UK, Broadfield UK's (formerly BDB Pitmans) collective experience includes acting for two-thirds of transport projects under the Planning Act 2008 regime; completing more DCO applications than any other law firm and having a 100% track record for consent. The team project manages all areas of delivery and provides strategic and tactical advice on planning matters during their entire life cycle. The team also includes four Roll A Parliamentary Agents and they have advised on both private and hybrid bills, including HS2, Crossrail and other major infrastructure projects.
The team’s work on DCOs and similar ‘special consents’ mean they regularly interact and negotiate with the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Marine Management Organisation, Historic England, National Grid, Network Rail, and Highways England, which can help ease the process of obtaining consent.
