Roads
Roads and Highways are one of our Groups core
strengths in the Transport Sector. Our involvement in the sector
ranges from advising on institutional infrastructure at national
and local administration level, through the planning and design of
complex urban roads and rural strategic routes to construction
supervision and technology transfer for developing countries.
Our Groups experience covers the whole of the project cycle from
data collection through analysis and planning to feasibility and
economic studies and then onto route planning and statutory
procedures, detailed design, value for money/ risk analysis,
procurement, site supervision and project review/audit to
management and maintenance of the asset. Our capability
includes specialist expertise in bridges, tunnels, pavement
engineering, intelligent transport systems, 3D visualisation and
environmental aspects.
Our basic skills have developed through use of
the latest design tools including GIS route analysis and computer
generated visulisation techniques. In addition we have
expanded our capability in project and programme management and in
the area of day to day operations, management and maintenance of
the network. Our knowledge of procurement and statutory processes
has expanded by direct involvement in major schemes using
traditional procurement, design and build, Early Contractor
Involvement and Design Build Finance and operate.
Our added value comes from our staff who have
unrivalled experience in the sector. We are able to bring
together our core staff from our worldwide resource and augment
them with in-house specialist skills appropriate to the task for
example:
Architects, Planners, Economists, Landscape Architects and
Environmentalists. Our operations are managed from skill
centres in UK, Ireland, Poland, India, China and South East Asia
with additional local offices set up to meet client and project
demands. Our staff share best practice throughout our
operations.
