Swept Path Assessment

Liongate Construction Consultancy has been appointed by Guildmore Planned Works to prepare a Swept Path Assessment supporting the discharge of the vehicle access and egress planning condition for a supported accommodation scheme in Kensington and Chelsea.

Our appointment

The scheme involves the change of use, refurbishment and internal reconfiguration of an existing building in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea to provide self-contained supported accommodation. In September 2026 the Council's Planning Applications Committee resolved to grant permission.

The permission includes a pre-commencement condition on vehicle access and egress. Before work starts, scaled swept path drawings must be approved in writing by the Council in consultation with Transport for London, showing that vehicles visiting the site for construction, delivery and servicing can enter and leave safely in a forward gear, with alternative arrangements set out for any vehicle that cannot.

Guildmore Planned Works appointed Liongate in October 2026 to prepare the assessment. Our team modelled vehicle movements for both the construction phase and the post-occupation phase, and coordinated the swept path drawings with the proposed site layout, the construction access arrangements and the project's Construction Management Plan.

The assessment has been issued to the client to support the condition discharge submission. Approval of the condition remains a matter for the Council, in consultation with Transport for London.
