Urban and transport planning
Rethinking how we design our cities by utilising global experience and data-driven insights to plan low-emission transport solutions, aiming to foster communities with safe and efficient mobility.
Rethinking how we design our cities
Challenges in mobility need to be solved by a holistic approach, integrating urban planning, a suite of context-relevant modal options, and digital solutions that simplify our lives.
Traditional planning that relies on complex, infrastructure-intensive transportation systems has led to congestion, noise, poor air quality, high safety risks, and contributes significantly to global warming. We must do things differently.
Combining our know-how to build a holistic mobility strategies
Our experience ranges from modelling the impact of urban development on transport usage and delivering roadmaps for implementing new technologies like autonomous vehicles, electric buses, MaaS (Mobility as a Service), and action plans for increasing the uptake of cycling and walking.
Our approach to transport planning encompasses urban planning, all transport modes, smart infrastructure, and people. We use data to understand current traffic patterns and predict future trends so cities and transportation agencies can make informed decisions to improve mobility and create sustainable transport systems.
We have 300+ Urban and transport planning experts supported by 3,000 transport planners and engineers, offering advice on transport projects worldwide from concept to implementation and monitoring.

Master planning
Creating places that support a high quality of life for all, our master planning approach ensures regenerative, integrated, and inclusive solutions at every scale.
Climate resilience planning and design
Turning climate-induced challenges into opportunities with integrated approaches and designs. Combining nature-based and state-of-the-art technologies, we help you build powerful business cases and reach urban resilience.
Transport planning and modelling
Developing comprehensive and sustainable mobility strategies for cities, regions, and on a country-wide basis using modelling and simulation to achieve well-balanced, multi-modal solutions.
FEATURED PROJECTS
Designed to reach all amenities within 5 minutes’ walk, Nordhavn in Copenhagen, Denmark, is a carbon-neutral development plan that has received DGNB’s highest gold certification for sustainability. And provides 40,000 residents access to nature on their doorstep.
A local transport concept for the state capital lays the foundation for high-quality local public transport. It explores if a tram or bus rapid transit system is the better option for the expansion of public transport and how footpaths and cycle paths can optimally complement the traffic flow.

RELATED INSIGHTS
The infrastructure sector is not decarbonising fast enough. Here’s what needs to change
Decarbonisation of the Infrastructure Sector”, a recent report by FIDIC, provides a best practice approach through the lifecycle of infrastructure projects, focusing on scope 3 emissions. Ramboll’s Elina Kalliala breaks down the report’s conclusions and provide ways to overcome the main barriers to large-scale change in developing low carbon infrastructure.
