On every infrastructure project environmental, occupational health and safety issues need to be assessed. COWI therefore provides consultancy services on environmental management in the phase of planning, design and construction.
 
 

 
Both the authorities and the local surroundings make demands on a reduction of the environmental impact during the design and construction of road projects. There is a focus on optimising the working environment and the safety of both the people constructing and maintaining the facilities and those using them.

COWI has many years of experience in consultancy services in the fields of environment, occupational health and safety both on national and international infrastructure projects. We take a holistic approach and we cover the project’s life cycle from selection of location through design, construction and operation to renovation and demolition.

Environmental management
We cover the whole spectre of services in the fields of environment, occupational health and safety, including:

EIA reviews
Environmentally friendly design
Mapping and management of external environmental conditions
Assessment and management of material and resource usage

We assist in building up an environmental management system which has a simple activity and action plan. The plan is adapted to the actual needs of the project and follows up on the environmental conditions through the design and construction phases.
