About Us
What do we do?
We advise on strategies to create successful cities and communities. In short – we make cities and communities work: work for citizens, work for investors and stakeholders, and work to meet the objectives set by policy makers.
We believe that mobility is vital for a successful city or community, and that understanding transport issues helps us to understand how lasting success can be achieved. We combine mobility insight with knowledge in other key areas such as governance, delivery models, funding, regeneration, place-making and social development to provide the necessary depth of understanding. Our applied solutions are based around the integration of mobility with city and community functions to ensure an integrated and comprehensive approach is taken.
We specialise in:
- Analysing and developing integrated strategies for successful cities and communities, balancing economic performance, environmental sustainability and social advance
- International research into successful cities, global best practice and future mobility concepts to inform decision making
- Policy and investment audit and assessment
- Governance, funding solutions and partnership development and facilitation
- Balancing infrastructure supply with demand management
- Innovative use of IT, new financial and delivery models and implementation mechanisms
From San Diego, to Melbourne, from Vienna to Newcastle, the ultimate focus of our work is on people. In the creation of successful and sustainable cities and communities for people, we understand that a holistic user centred approach is vital. We have made this a reality in global projects in which we engage with strategic stakeholders, residents and visitors alike.
