Design a subdivision software

Curb returns can be easily modified during the detailed design phase. Once confirmed — Project Assist will automatically build out your design and then generate a PDF file describing each step taken in the design along with links to videos that show exactly the actions taken — a great training tool for new users. Below is the preliminary design that Project Assist generated for this subdivision in under 5 minutes.

Civil Site Design generates the vertical design of the entire road network with all curb returns dynamically updated as design change are made.

Our designers can also offer solutions for concerns you may have about your subdivision design.

Often, you can adjust other aspects of the site plan, such as setbacks or street layouts and other infrastructure, to meet your needs.

We can also suggest other ways to maximize your subdivision design, such as reducing the number of intersections in order to have fewer corner lots. Corner lots in subdivisions tend to be harder to sell and go at a lower price. Or you can work towards other goals for a more efficient design, such as ensuring that a house is on both sides of every street that you will have to build. You can use this information to make a decision to purchase land for a subdivision, speak with potential investors, and determine customer demand.
