John Forbes Associates is a specialist town planning consultancy serving the greater Durban area and beyond. We combine decades of public- and private-sector experience to deliver clear, practical solutions for land use and development.
Our expertise spans rezoning, consent use, subdivision, township layout, appeals, feasibility studies, and the integration of environmental considerations into planning. When needed, we draw on a trusted network of allied professionals—environmental consultants, traffic engineers, land surveyors, geotechnical specialists, architects—to provide a seamless, multidisciplinary service from concept to approval.
We pride ourselves on responsive, personalised service and a results-driven approach that helps clients navigate complex regulatory processes with confidence.
