Stations should be smart, green and easy to use. Tune in 🎧 as our rail gurus John Versace, NDY’s global Transport Market Sector Director; Robert Bartlett, our NSW Transport Market Sector Leader; and Directors Michael Priest and Anthony Badr share insights on integrated station developments, advanced engineering and how we're making rail travel more efficient and enjoyable than ever. Our team delves into the ripple effects of well-connected rail stations on local communities and economies—from boosting local businesses to creating sustainable living options, the impact is profound. Plus, we're tackling the big questions: How do we design stations that are not only efficient (such as those with overtop or adjacent developments) but also a joy to use? And how do we ensure these spaces evolve with our cities?

Decarbonization of rail transit through electrification is a global priority. As designers, we are also committed to significantly lowering the operational and embodied carbon footprint of infrastructure, stations, and lineside facilities. AECOM - Transportation AECOM - Buildings + Places

🛣 What are London’s Road Maintenance Plans for 2025? 🛣 As London continues to grow, the city is ramping up its investment in infrastructure to meet future demands. In 2025, London is expected to implement £900 million of road improvement plans. Here’s what’s in store for the future: 2,000 miles of roads to be resurfaced, using cutting-edge, durable materials that reduce road noise by 40% and increase lifespan by 50% 🛣️ 200+ miles of new and expanded cycle lanes planned, with a goal of boosting cycling by 20% city-wide 🚴♀️🚴♂️ AI-powered traffic management systems to reduce delays by 25% and improve the efficiency of traffic flow during peak times 🚦 Net-zero construction materials to be used in all projects, supporting London’s target of 70% reduction in transport emissions by 2030 ♻️ Now, who's ready to play a key-role in these changes? #London2025  #RoadUpgrades #SmartTransport

A safe system approach is not complete without appropriate speed limits. It why I’m proud that in the Netherlands, after years of careful considerations, we now have a new road category that is suitable for multimodal traffic in urban environments. A big positive step forwards after all, safe speeds do save lives. After years of successful experience with 30km/h zones in residential zones and pedestrian and cycle dominated areas we now too have possibilities to create a road network with multimodal access roads with fitting speed limits of 30km/h. Royal HaskoningDHV has now got the experience to analyse and design a road network from a holistic view which considers the interest of various stakeholders and perspectives, such as the public transport impacts, the cycle and pedestrian community and driver behaviour. Curious? Look at our projects in a Dutch traffic context.

Mobility drives urban life, and on #WorldCitiesDay, we celebrate the solutions that connect people and spaces and enhance our quality of life. 🌆 From skyscrapers and low-rise buildings to metro stations and airports, TK Elevator's elevators, escalators, moving walks, and passenger boarding bridges are vital in creating a vibrant and bustling city for all who live, work, and visit. Whether flying to a city halfway around the world or simply moving between floors, our urban mobility solutions make every journey – big or small – seamless. As cities grow, so do the demands on their infrastructure. TKE moves people sustainably and safely with our state-of-the-art mobility solutions, shaping the urban landscape of tomorrow. 🏙️ Here's to cities that thrive and are accessible to all – thanks to mobility solutions that help us move beyond! #TKElevator #MoveBeyond #WorldCitiesDay2024

Urban air mobility is closer than ever to coming into commercial and public use. With potential use cases across cities, Gensler’s Michael Miller, AIA shares how cities can lean into this form of transportation. https://bit.ly/3UIhSkx

Rob West, our Managing Partner, recently participated in the Bisnow panel on ‘Retrofitting for the Future’ at the iconic retrofitted 7 Devonshire Square. Rob highlighted the significant carbon savings from our retrofit of The Kodak in London — approximately 240 kilograms of carbon per square meter, compared to 800-1,000 kilograms for new builds of the same size – underscoring the importance of retrofitting existing structures to combat the climate crisis. Read the full coverage here: https://bit.ly/3W5wsmS This Net Zero Week, we are reaffirming our commitment to sustainability in real estate. Retrofitting is a challenging yet essential part of our sustainability strategy, and we are dedicated to overcoming the financial and structural hurdles to create a greener future. #NetZeroWeek #Sustainability #Clearbell #Retrofitting #ClimateAction #RealEstate

Less time spent in traffic congestion means a better quality of life! The paradox is that building more roads does not reduce congestion but produces even more road traffic. But what can we do to avoid traffic once and for all? The answer is provided in a stronger urban and transport planning integration that provides mixed land-use neighbourhoods and walkable streets.    Over the last 60 years, Dornier has actively followed the vision of a holistic urban and transport planning in new developments in the MENA region as well as in historical European cities. As part of our mini-series on the mobility transition, we will reflect on harnessing synergies between urban and transport planning to improve future traffic conditions.    To find out more about TOD (Transit-Oriented Development) and the visionary 15-minute City, please click here: https://bit.ly/4c33vig For more information about Dornier's comprehensive mobility service portfolio, please visit our website: https://lnkd.in/ekV8Fc2C #dorniergroup #mobility #bettertogether #onecompany #mobilitytransition #mobility #accessibility #mobilitymanagement

🚝 Innovative Technology in Transport: Very Light Rail (VLR) 🚝 At Nota Bene we are inspired by innovation and Very Light Rail (VLR) is a topic which has certainly caught our eye. Here’s why we think VLR is revolutionising urban transport with its innovative approach to mobility: 💡Lightweight Design: VLR systems are significantly lighter than traditional rail, reducing infrastructure costs and wear on tracks. 💡Energy Efficiency: VLR uses advanced materials and efficient propulsion systems, making it more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. 💡Cost-Effective: Lower construction and maintenance costs make VLR a viable option for cities looking to improve their transport networks without breaking the bank. 💡Flexible Implementation: VLR can be integrated into existing urban landscapes with minimal disruption, offering flexible solutions for city planners. 💡Sustainability: By reducing carbon emissions and promoting public transport, VLR supports sustainable urban development. Urban Transport Group have a interesting blog on the topic the link can be found below to find out more. https://ow.ly/a9Ir50RY8GL 🚄 #TransportTech #Innovation #VeryLightRail #SustainableTransport #FutureOfTransport *Image used from Urban Transport Group website*
