Welcome to Transport Planning East of England! We have a team of around 25 Transport Planners who work flexibly between home and our Cambridge and Peterborough offices. Our team is diverse in its skillset and includes Transport Planners, Transport Modellers, Development Planners, Infrastructure Planners, Consultation Specialists, Data Analysts, Project Managers and Programmers.

We currently sit on the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Professional Services Framework, which brings a lot of work to support the local authorities with varying schemes and projects. We also maintain the SATURN-based Cambridge Sub-Regional Model (CSRM) on behalf of Cambridgeshire County Council, where we run and test new developments and local plan scenarios. As well as these connections to the local authority work, we have a range of private developers we continuously provide advisory services to.

Our work is predominantly within the East of England - but, our skillset also enables us to cover National projects, with our in-house experts providing technical inputs to other teams and regions. The industry is dynamic, and we’re always looking forward to supporting our clients in delivering a digital and Net Zero future. We’d be pleased to hear from you if you think you can contribute and make a difference as part of our Transport Planning community.

Welcome to Transport Planning Northern Ireland. We have an established business based in Belfast, providing a wide range of specialist services over the last 25 years. We have a broad portfolio of clients, working closely with organisations such as the Department for Infrastructure, Translink, Ulster University, the GAA, several local authorities and private sector clients. Our Transport Planning team is at the forefront of many fascinating multi-disciplinary projects, including the Casement Park Stadium and the Belfast Rapid Transit Glider project (Phase 2 is currently out for public consultation). We have a long history of providing strategic transport planning advice. AtkinsRéalis prepared the Belfast Metropolitan Transport Plan, and more recently, has provided transport planning and modelling support to help inform the North West and Belfast development strategies.

We have extensive development planning expertise and have supported retail, residential and commercial developments throughout Northern Ireland. Indeed, our team also provides help to our wider business and recently took a lead role in the appraisal of a third runway for Heathrow Airport. We also work alongside our colleagues in Scotland to support a broad and diverse range of projects in that region. Northern Ireland is a fantastic place to live and work, and we recently moved to modern state-of-the-art offices in central Belfast in late Autumn 2021.

We have over 30 staff operating out of our offices in Bristol and Cardiff, with our two teams being heavily interlinked. As part of the wider AtkinsRéalis multidisciplinary design and management team, our transport planners provide a key role in the conception, development and delivery of transport solutions that enable real change locally for transport users and society. Much of the team’s focus is on delivering our commitments as Framework Consultants for several authorities within our region, meaning that we can support the development of local multi-modal transport systems.

Across the wider business, we contribute to projects at a national scale for Network Rail, the Department for Transport, Transport for Wales and National Highways. The skills and expertise of the people in our offices cover the full range of Transport Planning disciplines, including strategy and policy development, sustainable modes design, economics and business case, development planning and data analytics. We have an expanding workload in future transport and mobility, cycle and public realm design, public transport service improvements and net carbon zero. I consider this diversity of balancing investment across modes and technologies is pushing us all in the right direction of achieving something special. Three words that sum up this Transport Planning Team are welcoming, innovative, and flexible. With our ongoing and pipeline of projects, there is an exciting future.
