Another is the York Flood Alleviation Scheme, for which AECOM have been working with the Environment Agency to identify, assess and design holistic solutions for the management of flooding in York, comprising hard and soft defences to adapt to climate change; Sheffield Three Brooks for Sheffield City Council, which involved integrated 1D-2D modelling of heavily urbanized catchments, and testing options for reusing abandoned networks, retrofitting SuDS, natural flood management and culvert daylighting; and, A38 Derby Junction Improvements – a multi-disciplinary road scheme in which AECOM flood risk modellers and engineers have been working with teams from highways, drainage, environment and ecology to design revised junction layouts that improve flood risk whilst simultaneously accommodating all other discipline design constraints.
