Presentation by Professor Mark Wardman delivered to an International Transport Workshop: Railway Transport Economics organised by Argentine Railways, June 2014.
Rail has been at the core of our design services since Atkins
was established more than 75 years ago; our first rail project
was completed in 1945, involving the creation of critical
infrastructure links for the UK’s rail network.
The development of rail infrastructure in the Middle East commenced relatively recently and we’re proud to have been involved from the beginning, having been engaged as the lead design consultant for the Dubai Metro in 2006.
In the following pages you’ll learn more about us and our work,
and I hope you’ll gain a sense of our excitement to be helping our
clients to design and deliver rail projects which will play a key role in the future development of the region

Advancing Sustainable User-centric Mobility with Automated Vehicles.
How can we reach a sustainable deployment of fully autonomous vehicles for shared public transportation? what are the economic and technical barriers?
City Speak XI - Is transport the solution or the enemy? Bruno Charade of HK T...DesigningHongKong
Development and transport are closely related, but how do we connect the dots and guarantee a livable city for future generations?
Lifting the moratorium in Mid-levels, reducing the threshold for redevelopment and the constant pressure to increase density are all choking the older parts of Hong Kong with more traffic and roadside air pollution.
How do we deal with the increased traffic on new roads to the Mainland? How many more roads are we planning to build on our waterfront? Is there too much public transport clogging up our roads? Is replacing pedestrian crossings with subways and footbridges a good thing?
What plans are there for environmentally friendly transport and aesthetically more pleasing transport infrastructure in Hong Kong? Where are the hopes for making our city more pedestrian-friendly? Can new engine technology solve our problems? Could electronic road pricing help? Will the new rail lines be enough? Do we have a sustainable (transport) plan for our city?
Planners, engineers, academics and officials will discuss whether transport is our solution or our enemy.
