Experience you can rely on
Since 2015, Barr Planning has delivered strategic and practical planning solutions across the Hunter, Sydney, and regional New South Wales.
Our team combines deep industry knowledge with a collaborative and outcomes-focused approach, helping clients navigate complex planning pathways with confidence. From advisory and development services through to social planning, we work across a diverse range of sectors including residential, education, industrial, infrastructure, health, tourism, and digital infrastructure.
Working alongside leading design, environmental, and engineering professionals, we look beyond the planning process to understand the bigger picture – delivering practical solutions and meaningful outcomes for our clients and communities.
Multidisciplinary Expertise. Connected thinking
From our Hunter and Sydney offices, Barr Planning delivers strategic and practical planning solutions for projects across New South Wales. Our team provides expertise across advisory services, development services, and social planning – combining local knowledge with broad industry experience to help navigate complex planning challenges and deliver meaningful outcomes.
Since joining Beveridge Williams in mid-2026, our clients now benefit from access to an expanded multidisciplinary network and integrated development expertise. Together, we bring planning, engineering, landscape architecture, surveying, and urban design together under one collaborative approach – creating seamless project delivery from strategy through to implementation.
By combining specialist knowledge with connected thinking, we are able to see the bigger picture and deliver smarter, more integrated outcomes for our clients and communities.

Partnering for Positive Social Impact
We also believe that we have a unique opportunity and responsibility to support organisations that seek to make a positive social impact in the community. To do this we endeavour to work with organisations that specifically help those who are disadvantaged or vulnerable and are committed to developing collaborative partnerships with clients to help further improve social outcomes.
Industry Bodies
Barr Planning acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today, through considerate and respectful approaches to our work, and seeking to facilitate a balance between the transformation of land and the preservation of the natural and cultural environment.
