Cities
With a vast range of in-depth experience in Cities, our people have helped make vital improvements to pedestrian and motorist experiences, public housing occupancy and sustainable buildings.
Providing a comprehensive range of services to property owners, developers and institutional clients, our capability extends across the entire project lifecycle from strategy, through to delivery and operational asset. From early concept stages, permitting, procurement, through to delivery and handover, our experts in commercial advisory, cost management, constructability and procurement ensure our clients optimise value at every stage.
We understand how our urban environments strengthen the social, economic and ecological performance of cities, and profound effects that considered planning has on city residents’ quality of life. From multi-story commercial, residential and retail developments to special purpose industrial and institutional buildings and facilities, we coordinate and lead technical teams on some of the country’s largest urban transformation projects
