SLR Consulting has appointed Iain Lamb to its Edinburgh-based team as the consultancy launches a new service offering for transport planning in Scotland.
The experienced transport advisor will be responsible for providing comprehensive transport advice to SLR’s portfolio of development clients in Scotland and elsewhere in the UK.
Mr Lamb’s previous work in transport planning consultancy includes roles with Mott MacDonald and Steer Davies Gleave. He joins SLR following seven years with Edinburgh-based Transport Planning consultants.
SLR Consulting said that the appointment sees it equip itself with a ‘broad experience’ of transport planning and enhances its ability to provide tailored transport planning advice in its role as advisor to a wide range of clients.
Mr Lamb said, “Sustainability and decarbonisation are top of the agenda when it comes to transport planning, combined with people’s changing travel patterns following the pandemic. I’m excited to guide our developer partners through their projects with SLR’s sustainability ethos at the forefront.”
Mr Lamb and the wider Edinburgh-based SLR Consulting team will provide integrated transport and master planning advice along with OPEN colleagues as part of a new service offering.
“There’s a great agility within SLR and a significant number of projects in the transport and infrastructure market that we’re involved with, so it’s a very exciting time to join the company and contribute to its broader growth strategy,” he added.
