Key Milestones - 9 Months and 100 Projects

As we approach our ninth month of trading, we have also reached an important milestone, having been appointed on our 100th project. We focus on Transport Planning and have the experience to advise on any project, anywhere in the UK. From single dwellings to new communities, local shops to retail parks, community facilities to sports stadia, town centre regeneration projects, office space to warehousing, we have advised clients in both the private and public sectors.

Why Astute?

As a new transport planning consultancy, much consideration has been given to our brand name. We wanted to keep things simple and create a brand that reflects who we are and how we work.

What’s in a Name? The Birth of a Transport Planning Brand.

Since our launch we have only received positive feedback about our branding, including our website, manifesto and suite of documents. As a team who strive to collaborate closely on projects, we thought it would be interesting to reflect on the branding process with William Seabrook at Patn.
