**Title: Swept Path Analysis – 10-Space Car Park (UK planning) **
I require an experienced transport engineer or CAD vehicle-tracking specialist to undertake a professional swept-path analysis of a private mixed-use car park in Egham, Surrey, UK.
The analysis will support a Section 73 planning application.
I will supply the proposed parking layout in PDF format.
**Project requirements**
- 10 car parking bays, including one disabled bay.
- 6 motorcycle bays.
- Single vehicle entrance/exit onto Denham Road.
- Existing courtyard with structural columns, walls, gates and building entrances.
- Planning condition requiring vehicles to enter and leave the site in forward gear.
**Required technical assessment**
1. Verify the scale and accuracy of the supplied base drawing, flagging any missing dimensions before commencing.
2. Analyse entry and exit manoeuvres for all ten individual parking spaces, assuming other spaces are occupied.
3. Demonstrate that vehicles can turn within the site and enter and leave Danham Road in forward gear.
4. Use appropriate UK passenger-car design vehicles, including a representative larger car/SUV, with vehicle dimensions and turning characteristics clearly stated.
5. Show vehicle-body envelopes, wheel tracks, manoeuvring sequences and clearances to fixed obstacles and parked vehicles.
6. Allow realistic reversing and multi-point manoeuvres where appropriate, rather than assuming every bay must be accessed in a single movement.
7. Identify any failed manoeuvres, inadequate clearances or bays that cannot reasonably be used. Do not alter the approved layout or vehicle dimensions to manufacture a passing result.
**Technical requirements**
The work must have regard to:
- Department for Transport – Manual for Streets.
- Surrey County Council – Healthy Streets for Surrey.
- Runnymede Borough Council – Parking Guidance SPD (November 2022).
- Any additional specific requirements notified by the local planning or highway authority.
Use Autodesk Vehicle Tracking, AutoTURN or equivalent recognised vehicle-tracking software.
**Deliverables**
- Scaled, submission-quality PDF drawings.
- Editable DWG/DXF files.
- Vehicle specification diagrams and modelling assumptions.
- Clear identification of passing and failing manoeuvres.
- Brief methodology and confirmation of the guidance used.
**Quality assurance and revisions**
Before final delivery, please confirm that all ten bays and the forward-gear access/egress requirement have been tested.
The agreed fee must include correction of any technical errors, incorrect vehicle modelling, drawing-scale errors, omitted manoeuvres or other non-compliance with the agreed technical scope identified during review.
Where the planning authority raises a justified technical query arising from an error or omission in the original analysis, I would require reasonable corrections at no additional charge within 60 days of delivery.
This does not require the freelancer to guarantee planning permission or provide unlimited redesign work.
Please confirm that you accept these requirements before quoting.
**Please provide:**
- Fixed total fee.
- Relevant UK planning-submission experience.
- Examples of previous swept-path drawings.
- Software used.
- Whether you require DWG files in addition to my PDF.
- Confirmation of the included revisions and corrections.
