Hanger Lane

Oxford Circus Diagonal Crossing Urban Realm Design Scheme - Assisted PM through Construction - Identifying Risk and Solutions - Site Reporting - Stakeholder Engagement crucial My role included...

Cycle Hire Scheme March 2012 – pre-Olympic launch Supporting five central Olympic venues Maximize cycling potential - Barclays Cycle Superhighways 2 and 3 and three Olympic Legacy Greenways will offer more cycle-friendly alternatives in expansion area

Site delivery process Site identification Informal consultation Detailed design Consents Construction

Highways Asset Management Highway Structures on the TLRN - 13 Tunnels -Recent High Profile Refurbishment Projects include: - Blackwall Northbound Tunnel - Albert Bridge

Highways Asset Management Twickenham Bridge -Helping to apply Life Cycle Tool and develop Long Term Spending Strategy -Identifying priority work on Olympic Route Network

Civil Engineering in Surface Transport Some conclusions: -Useful insight. -Roles are not all just technical. -There’s some pretty interesting things going on in Surface Transport! Questions to think about: -Project Horizon – fundamentally how different is a civil engineers role in Surface Transport, LU and London Rail? - Was Lord Sugar in a recent episode of The Apprentice, right to say “I have never yet come across an engineer that can turn his hand to business”???!
