Technology for neighbourhood planning
Professional-grade support at community-friendly prices.
Neighbourhood planning groups and community forums face a unique challenge, to create high-quality, locally-supported development plans with volunteer time and limited budgets.
CityCAD Technologies exists to democratize access to world-class urban planning tools and expertise. Our free CityCAD software empowers community groups to explore design options independently, while our affordable consultancy services provide professional support when you need it.
Our technology has supported parish councils, neighborhood forums, business improvement districts and other local groups in the UK and around the world. For example, we can provide:
- Simple CityCAD model creation to test ideas and support an evidence-based discussion of development options.
- Facilitation of design workshops, supported by CityCAD, where ideas can be quickly tested on screen ("If we add some development there, how many parking spaces will we need and will that be able to cross-subsidize the community facilities?")
- Accessible sustainability and liveability analysis which quantifies the environmental and social benefits of your proposals.
We understand that community groups work with volunteer time and uncertain funding, so we offer flexible payment terms, phased delivery and transparent pricing with no hidden costs.
