Creating Places That Thrive

At SYSTRA, our teams focus on designing and implementing sustainable and efficient transport solutions that enhance connectivity and accessibility. By integrating innovative engineering and consulting services, we aim to develop next generation transport plans that deliver sustainable liveable communities and economic growth.

Cities and towns are not ends in themselves or a convenient way to socially organise populations, but an expression of the particular people who live in them, their needs and desires and ways of life. That doesn’t sound like such a radical idea today, but a glance at the history of urban planning , especially the heroic errors of the 20th century, makes it obvious that it is an idea that is not always well understood.

We work collaboratively to develop transport systems that improve the movement of people and goods, reducing congestion and travel times.

Promoting sustainability and fostering economic growth feed into a wider vision of improving quality of life for communities – where user-friendly transport systems that are safe, reliable, and accessible to all.

We’ll be available to discuss these themes and more throughout Connected Places Summit 2025. Talk to our team of specialists attending the conference,  browse their profiles below, and reach out to line up conversations around how we can help you create those places that thrive.

USING DATA TO FORCAST FUTURE MOBILITY

From EV charging to e-scooters, we seek to understand changing behaviours. We’re planning for latent demand across a transforming transport environment.

Data plays a crucial role in shaping the future of mobility by enabling more informed decision-making and enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the transport solutions we are working towards.
