Rural landscape planning is a complex task with many exciting opportunities for utilising the values of the landscape in municipal planning and development. However, the task also involves many different interests to be balanced.
NIRAS has many years’ experience of placing the values of the rural landscape in the centre of our planning activities. We offer a unique combination of knowledge of planning and specialist knowledge within landscape, nature, cultural heritage, outdoor life and environment.
Nature and landscape make up a significant potential in a municipality’s development. The range from overall political objectives and strategies to local planning and specific projects has given NIRAS experiences in all phases of landscape analysis.
For us, dialogue, knowledge-sharing and cooperation are always the focus of planning in order to secure and develop the core values in the open landscape. This includes citizen access to and experiences in the landscape, a positive interaction between different stakeholders as well as development of attractive settlement opportunities.
