Fellows Add Value:

Fellows are providing extensive Project Management and Quantity Surveying services as well as performing all roles associated with our  appointment as Employer’s Agent. The role included the management of a viability exercise to reduce the potential 22 pitches over three sites, to the more feasible delivery of 16 pitches over two sites.

Fellows worked closely alongside Shropshire Council’s Traveller Liaison Officer and in-house consultancy team to compile a master plan to review the condition of the existing pitches. The aim of this exercise was to provide the most effective solution for the sites.
