Fairhurst has an extensive track record in providing professional services in water engineering and river management, with experience in assessment and design services on schemes from small scale residential developments to nationally important transport infrastructure and major hydro-electric dams. Through our projects we act at the interface between human activity and the water environment, and we recognise our role in supporting the sustainable management of this vital resource.
Our team has expertise in river management and restoration; water supply infrastructure; drainage design and sustainable drainage systems; and dam and reservoir engineering. We support assessments of flood risk on watercourses ranging from small tributaries to our nation’s largest rivers, and of tidal, coastal and wave effects. Embedded in our teams we have water environment, hydro-geology, EIA and consenting experts. Through this approach environmental protection and compliance are built in to our service, ensuring our constructed projects deliver on our client’s and our society’s needs.
