Urban Light Transit
Atkins has over twenty years’ experience of working with clients on their light transit schemes all over the world.
From the initial idea, through design and construction to operation, maintenance and asset management, Atkins has brought skills from across the transportation sector and beyond to enable the provision of quality transit services to the public.
More than simply engineering, Atkins is able to integrate the social, political and economic considerations of schemes into its service offerings. This ensures that projects are not just technically excellent, but also enhance people’s experience of public transport.
Light transit schemes do not operate in a void, but have to be fully integrated with:
- roads
- railways
- buildings
- waterways
- airports
- utilities
- environmental and other constraints.
The multidisciplinary expertise available across the Atkins Group means that we are well placed to understand and incorporate the needs of the variety of users, operators, neighbours and stakeholders that interface with a light transit project.
We have solid experience of a wide range of light transit projects from guided busways to trams and fully automated light rail systems. Atkins is therefore able to assist in providing the appropriate solution for each location and each client at every stage of the project.
