Urban transport

The growth of motorised transport and resulting traffic congestion has created many economic, health and environmental problems in urban areas across the globe. Choosing the right strategy to combat these issues can be a difficult task due to the complexities of urban systems and their hinterlands. Steer supports public agencies, private financiers, operators and regulators to ensure city transport systems help people, places and economies thrive.

A renewed focus on decarbonisation, increasing social mobility, rising fuel costs, changing demographics, and evolving digital/energy landscapes create a dynamic, evolving environment for travel demands. At the same time, transport providers are experiencing reduced funding opportunities, disruption from on-demand technology and a continued reliance on single occupancy vehicles. This can create a multitude of competing demands and varying factors that make it difficult to successfully integrate mobility planning into evolving urban areas.

Our wide breadth of experience and capabilities allow us to understand the complexities of urban transport problems to provide context sensitive, comprehensive solutions. Using lessons learned from our work globally, we develop the best applications to plan for integrated mobility in each project location.
