OUR CLIENTS

Congratulations! This is really great work for such a major development of national significance. Jamie MacArthur, Bellway Divisional Planning Manager and local resident of the Gilston Area

https://urbansilenceltd.comA high quality and thorough piece of work, …[allowing us to] engage members on the critical question of policy preferences.

We have been talking over the past couple of days [after the workshop with URBAN Silence and GHD]. We realise now that we weren't thinking big enough for Ramsey's future and that if this Masterplan really has the potential to grow Ramsey and we are up for it… V. Fendley, Ramsey Town Council

Very happy and grateful to have you on board with us. Your support is really appreciated and I am sure that your robust experience in planning can really help us achieve our targets. Thank you! Faris Hussain, Transformation Team, Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning - Oman

URBAN Silence’s remarkable experience in master planning made possible to achieve a great harmony between dynamic and flexible opportunities for development, while safeguarding the heritage and addressing with sensitivity the public green spaces. The adopted Area Scheme is widely considered a very positive guidance for the city.Agni Petridou, Conservation Architect and Planner, on behalf of the Municipality of Nicosia

All credit to an incredible group of local people and the leadership they gave. They took the brave decision that, if the development was going to happen, they would set aside their personal views to work with the developers and Authorities and use the Neighbourhood planning process to try and ensure the highest quality development and secure the best possible outcomes for their communities.Mary Parsons, former project leader for the developers Places for People, Gilston

Our experience with Martina and her team was extremely positive from the outset. They skilfully sought our views and used our wide-ranging experience of our own community to define the unique special character of Histon & Impington, what is valued in the community and aspirations for the future. The result is an impressive document that we feel has successfully captured the essence of what makes our community special and it provides important and valuable guidance for any future development. Sue Lee, Community Member Histon & Impington

I can honestly say that the 27 years I have been in Balsall Common have been a real privilege. [However,] Balsall Common is virtually the same now as it was when I bought the shop. Most of the business owners including myself have invested a lot of time and money to improve their shops, so modernising the centre is nothing less than what they and the residents deserve. Jim, Balsall Common business owner

Gosh, what wonderful help you have given us; thank you. You have turned this around very quickly and efficiently for which we as a Group are very grateful, and me especially.Anthony Bickmore, Chairman of Neighbourhood Planning Group, Gilston

Grateful for your support and glad to see you continue this journey with us.Hilal Al Qamshoey, Head of Transformation, Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning - Oman MHUP

You have understood the city's cultural, economic assets, public sector's administrative and tangible strengths and weaknesses, the private sector's operations and interests, the youth's eagerness, the problems of division, the capacity of the finance sector, the infrastructure constraints. The outcome could be too ambitious, but I want to reassure you of our steadfast collaboration and assistance. Thanks once again. Ali Guralp, Director of Nicosia Turkish Municipality Planning and Project Department

Martina and Urban Silence team, you guys have done an exceptional job extracting and surfacing the key issues in the tight timeline and data limitations. Truly impressive.Yondela Silimela, World Bank Group – Senior Urban Specialist
