Air Quality Assessment in Dartford

6 December 2016

Aether has recently completed an air quality assessment for a proposed large residential development in Dartford. The proposed development consists of the construction of over 400 residential apartments, in conjunction with green infrastructure, and basement car parking and bicycle storage. The development is located within an area currently being re-developed, the Council are therefore concerned about the effect of cumulative impacts.

The assessment used the dispersion model ADMS roads to assess the pollutant concentrations both without and with development. In addition, Aether suggested mitigation measures to be implemented in order to reduce the developments impact on local air quality.

“ From their winning bid to final delivery, Aether's work with North Norfolk District Council was positive and thorough. They brought a clear understanding of the challenges local authorities face regarding carbon emissions and quickly understood the unique nature of the Coastwise project. Communication was effective, and the outcomes combined a depth of research with real-world utility for the council's activities around carbon emissions and mitigation. ”
