Sustainable Transportation Consultancy
We pride ourselves on people-focused sustainable transport consultancy that helps clients create multi-modal, accessible and reliable mobility systems – which in turn enhance wellbeing and quality of life while driving positive change on a societal scale. From economic and environmental assessment and policy advice to modelling, infrastructure design and on-the-ground engineering, our experts provide end-to-end support for local schemes and national frameworks alike.
Our transport & mobility teams can draw on local insights as well as global skill sets. Having led and supported sustainable transport projects in the UK and around the world for government and private sector partners, we have proven experience in connecting communities, growing economies and leading the way on the journey to net zero. Sweco’s key expertise covers strategy, planning, design, appraisals and delivery in the four main areas below:
- Active travel (walking and cycling)
- Placemaking and healthy streets
- Travel behaviour change
- Public transport planning and strategy
We understand that the most successful schemes rely on much more than technical skills alone. In all aspects of a project, we prioritise transparency and robustness of design with holistic thinking – feasibility is as central to our visions as creativity, and genuinely transforming society for the better is at the heart of every proposal we put forward.
Sweco offers a full suite of complementary skill sets from around our international network of transport and mobility experts. From planning a scheme to engagement design and delivery, we bring highways, road safety, active travel, carbon, landscape architecture, net zero and placemaking teams together – all full of leaders in their chosen field with proven track records on both local and national projects.
We pride ourselves on ‘faces to names’ project continuity at Sweco. The team you connect with at bid stage is the team you’ll collaborate with when it comes to the work itself – including senior engineers and consultants who provide full accountability from the outset.
We have leading specialists in all aspects of sustainable transportation – from policy strategy, modelling and visualisation to multi-modal route planning and community engagement – so our clients benefit from meaningful start-to-finish contact with them right through the lifecycle of a scheme.
