Preferred Route (Location) Report
Capital Works Management Framework, Guidance Note, Glossary, Published by the Government of Ireland Department of Finance in 2009 suggests that: ‘The Preferred Route (Location) Report assesses the location or preferred route of a civil engineering project, and may include preliminary design studies dealing with basic layout, point of discharge, assimilative capacity, site coverage (footprint and facility), block plan options to determine best land use, planning considerations and overall cost implications. The use of mapping and GIS systems can be particularly useful in helping to the required information quickly and economically.’
