Construction Logistics & CLP Support in Hammersmith & Fulham

Specialist construction logistics planning and technical drawing support for developments across the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham.

Construction projects in Hammersmith and Fulham frequently operate within constrained residential and commercial streets, with limited loading space, busy pedestrian routes, cycle infrastructure, schools, parking restrictions and major strategic roads.

Construct Logistics Consultancy supports contractors, developers and project teams with Construction Logistics Plans, site logistics drawings, vehicle routing, swept path analysis, construction phasing, traffic management drawings and the technical logistics information required to support planning and pre-commencement submissions.

Construction Logistics Requirements in Hammersmith & Fulham

Construction Logistics Plans are commonly used to establish how construction traffic and site operations will be managed throughout the works.

Depending on the development and planning requirements, the logistics strategy may need to address:

  • Site logistics and operations

  • Construction vehicle routing

  • Vehicle numbers and sizes

  • Site access and egress

  • Delivery locations

  • Vehicle holding arrangements

  • Delivery booking procedures

  • Traffic management

  • Swept path analysis

  • Pedestrian and cyclist management

  • CLOCS requirements

  • FORS requirements

  • Construction phasing

  • Temporary highway arrangements

CLC can prepare both the written logistics strategy and the supporting technical drawings required to clearly communicate these arrangements.

Construction Logistics Plan Condition Discharge

A Construction Logistics Plan may be secured through a pre-commencement planning condition requiring approval before construction begins.

CLC can review the condition wording, approved planning documents and available construction information to establish the required logistics package.

Depending on the project, this may include:

  • Detailed Construction Logistics Plan

  • Site logistics drawings

  • Vehicle movement forecasts

  • Vehicle routing

  • Access and egress arrangements

  • Loading locations

  • Vehicle holding strategy

  • Swept path analysis

  • Pedestrian management

  • Traffic marshal arrangements

  • Construction phasing

  • Traffic management proposals

The package can then be coordinated for submission as part of the planning condition discharge process.

Construction Vehicle Routing

Construction vehicle routes should establish how vehicles travel between the strategic highway network and the development site.

The routing strategy should consider:

  • Strategic routes to and from the site

  • Local approach and departure routes

  • Vehicle size restrictions

  • Weight and height restrictions

  • Narrow residential streets

  • Schools and nurseries

  • Cycle infrastructure

  • Bus routes

  • One-way systems

  • Restricted junctions

  • TfL-controlled roads

  • Alternative or contingency routes

Hammersmith and Fulham contains major strategic routes including the A4 corridor, so construction vehicle routing may also need to consider interfaces with the Transport for London Road Network.

Regional and local routing plans can be prepared to clearly communicate the proposed routes to contractors, suppliers and drivers.

Swept Path Analysis

Swept path analysis can be used to assess whether proposed construction vehicles can safely negotiate the surrounding highway and reach the required loading or site access position.

This may include assessment of:

  • Site access and egress

  • Tight junctions

  • HGV turning movements

  • Reversing manoeuvres

  • Loading locations

  • Temporary vehicle access points

  • Parked vehicles

  • Passing traffic

  • Kerbs and street furniture

  • Vehicle suitability

  • Temporary traffic management layouts

Where a proposed vehicle cannot safely undertake the required manoeuvre, vehicle tracking can help identify a more appropriate vehicle or alternative logistics arrangement.

Site Access & Egress

Construction vehicle access should be designed to minimise conflict with pedestrians, cyclists and general traffic.

The logistics strategy may need to demonstrate:

  • Site gate locations

  • Vehicle entry arrangements

  • Vehicle exit arrangements

  • Traffic marshal positions

  • Pedestrian crossing points

  • Cycle route interfaces

  • Visibility

  • Gate controls

  • Reversing procedures

  • Vehicle waiting arrangements

  • Emergency access

Where vehicle movements require temporary control of surrounding traffic or pedestrians, the proposed procedure should be clearly illustrated.

Loading & Unloading

Many Hammersmith and Fulham projects have limited space available for construction vehicle loading within the development boundary.

Where loading takes place from the public highway, the proposed arrangement should consider:

  • Vehicle position

  • Loading duration

  • Residual carriageway width

  • Passing traffic

  • Pedestrian routes

  • Cycle movements

  • Traffic marshal positions

  • Existing parking

  • Loading restrictions

  • Bus routes

  • Nearby junctions

  • Access to neighbouring properties

  • Temporary traffic management

The loading strategy should be coordinated with the wider site logistics plan.

Vehicle Holding & Delivery Management

Construction deliveries should be carefully managed to prevent congestion and vehicles waiting on surrounding streets.

A delivery management strategy may include:

  • Pre-booked delivery slots

  • Call-forward procedures

  • Just-in-time deliveries

  • Vehicle size restrictions

  • Delivery sequencing

  • Delivery forecasts

  • Maximum loading periods

  • Waste collections

  • Remote holding arrangements where appropriate

  • Contingency procedures

Where no suitable holding area is available near the site, drivers should be instructed not to arrive before their allocated delivery time.

Construction Vehicle Numbers

Construction Logistics Plans may need to identify the anticipated number, size and frequency of construction vehicles throughout the programme.

Vehicle forecasts can help establish:

  • Daily vehicle movements

  • Weekly vehicle movements

  • Peak construction periods

  • Vehicle types

  • Delivery frequency

  • Waste collections

  • Concrete deliveries

  • Large or abnormal deliveries

For phased developments, vehicle movements may vary significantly between demolition, substructure, superstructure and fit-out stages.

CLOCS & FORS

Construction logistics requirements may include compliance with CLOCS and appropriate FORS standards.

Depending on the development, the logistics strategy may need to consider:

  • Construction vehicle safety

  • Vulnerable road-user protection

  • Driver requirements

  • Vehicle standards

  • Direct Vision requirements

  • Delivery scheduling

  • Vehicle routing

  • Traffic marshal procedures

  • Monitoring and compliance

These requirements should be coordinated with the contractor's procurement and delivery strategy.

Pedestrian & Cyclist Management

Construction logistics planning should identify potential conflicts between construction operations and vulnerable road users.

Drawings may need to demonstrate:

  • Maintained pedestrian routes

  • Cycle lane interfaces

  • Site gate crossings

  • Temporary barriers

  • Traffic marshal positions

  • Loading operations

  • Footway restrictions

  • Temporary diversions

  • Accessible pedestrian routes

  • Controlled vehicle movements

Where construction vehicles cross pedestrian or cycle routes, suitable management measures should be clearly identified.

Traffic Marshals

Traffic marshals may be required to supervise construction vehicle access, egress, reversing and loading operations.

The logistics strategy can identify:

  • Number of marshals

  • Marshal locations

  • Roles and responsibilities

  • Vehicle arrival procedures

  • Vehicle departure procedures

  • Reversing controls

  • Pedestrian management

  • Cyclist management

  • Communication arrangements

These controls can be clearly incorporated into site logistics and traffic management drawings.

Construction Activity Around Schools

Additional controls may be required where construction routes pass schools or nurseries.

The logistics strategy should consider:

  • School arrival periods

  • School departure periods

  • Pedestrian crossing points

  • Vehicle routes

  • Delivery times

  • Traffic marshal requirements

  • Alternative routes where practicable

Construction deliveries should be planned to avoid particularly sensitive periods where required.

Parking Bay Suspensions

Temporary parking suspensions may be required where existing parking prevents safe construction access or loading.

Suspensions may be required for:

  • Construction loading

  • Vehicle manoeuvring

  • Site access

  • Scaffold erection

  • Hoarding

  • Crane operations

  • Temporary traffic management

  • Material deliveries

Potential suspension requirements should be identified early so that they can be incorporated into the construction programme.

Scaffold, Hoarding & Gantry Interfaces

Scaffolding, hoarding and pedestrian gantries can significantly affect available highway space.

Construction logistics planning should consider how these structures interact with:

  • Pedestrian routes

  • Site gates

  • Loading areas

  • Parking bays

  • Cycle infrastructure

  • Available carriageway width

  • Vehicle swept paths

  • Street furniture

  • Neighbouring entrances

  • Traffic management arrangements

Considering these interfaces early can help avoid conflicts between temporary structures and vehicle operations.

Temporary Traffic Management

Construction operations may require temporary changes to the surrounding highway.

These can include:

  • Temporary traffic controls

  • Lane restrictions

  • Parking suspensions

  • Loading restrictions

  • Footway restrictions

  • Road closures

  • Temporary pedestrian arrangements

  • Vehicle access controls

  • Crane operations

Traffic management arrangements should be coordinated with the wider construction logistics strategy.

Construction Working Hours & Delivery Periods

Construction activity within Hammersmith and Fulham is typically subject to restrictions intended to minimise disturbance to surrounding residents and businesses.

Typical working periods are:

Monday to Friday: 08:00–18:00

Saturday: 08:00–13:00

Sundays and Bank Holidays: No noisy working

Project-specific planning conditions should always be reviewed before confirming the programme.

Construction delivery periods may also be more restrictive than general site working hours, particularly where local traffic conditions or sensitive receptors are present.

Construction Phasing Logistics Plans

Construction logistics requirements can change significantly throughout the programme.

Phasing logistics plans can demonstrate how arrangements develop during:

  • Site establishment

  • Demolition

  • Enabling works

  • Substructure

  • Superstructure

  • Façade works

  • Fit-out

  • External works

  • Completion

Plans can illustrate changes to:
