Site screening
Solar Site Access Road Screening
Review public-road proximity, delivery routes, site entrances and internal access constraints at early stage.
Why this workflow matters
Access screening must follow the full logistics route, not only the nearest mapped road. Bridge limits, gradients, turning radii, settlements, land rights and construction traffic can control feasibility and cost.
Questions to answer
- Where is the nearest suitable public road?
- Can abnormal or heavy deliveries reach the site?
- Is a safe entrance achievable?
- Which off-site upgrades or rights may be required?
Recommended workflow
- 1Map candidate entrances and public-road connections.
- 2Trace delivery routes to major transport corridors.
- 3Flag structures, gradients, width restrictions and sensitive receptors.
- 4Define survey, swept-path and highway-authority actions.
Evidence to collect
- ✓ Road hierarchy and ownership
- ✓ Route imagery and reconnaissance
- ✓ Bridge, width and gradient constraints
- ✓ Access-right and highway consultation
