The Developer's Guide to Brownfield III

Risks and resources on brownfield development in the UK

The Developer’s Guide to Brownfield is a key reference document to guide developers through the minefield of legislation, technology, risks and opportunities related to developing brownfield sites in the UK. It may be stating the obvious to say that developers seeking to bring brownfield sites back into beneficial use need to maximise the resources available to them whilst minimising the risks they are exposed to. But changes in the regulatory, financial and environmental arenas over the past 12 months look set to make both those risks and those resources greater.
