Transport Planner Pete Salvin

What is Transport Planning?

As a transport planner you may find yourself working on any number of projects which aim to prepare, assess and implement policies, plans and projects to manage and improve our transport systems. The work of a transport planner touches almost every aspect of our day-to-day lives, shaping our towns and cities to create a world where the economy and the environment can thrive. As a Transport Planner your impact on the day to day lives of the people around you is tangible and you can expect to enjoy a highly varied and stimulating work stream.

We believe that no matter what your background, if you have a passion for transforming our towns and cities then many existing skills can be applied successfully thanks to the support and training provided by Atkins.

Pete first joined Atkins on a summer placement after studying Civil Engineering at University – staying for just long-enough to fund a few months travelling before starting work for good. On his return he joined the Bristol Transport Planning team as a graduate and has stayed with the team ever since. He now manages projects and provides technical leadership within the team.

Early on, Pete enjoyed the opportunity to work on a variety of projects for local clients, from safety improvement schemes, freight management schemes, transport strategies, and secondments into local authorities delivering town centre parking zones. This wide base of experience helped Pete, with Atkins support to gain Chartered Engineer status through CIHT.

More recently, Pete has focused his career on feasibility studies and design, working on walking, cycling and public realm projects. He is an active member of the internal Technical Network, sharing knowledge and opportunities with colleagues and improving the quality of designs delivered for our clients, and shaping a step change in walking and cycling infrastructure.
