Following our Human Factors team’s accreditation for their record of exceptional delivery with the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors, we’re thrilled to be sponsoring the construction session at the Ergonomics & Human Factors 2025 event later in April! ?? Whether it’s reducing risk, or improving efficiency and quality on-site, human factors can come into play in many ways throughout a construction phase, and even lead to more sustainable sites with more cohesive teams. ?? Human factors is something we’re really passionate about here at SYSTRA, both in construction and in examining how people interact with and are affected by transportation and other systems. This examination not only helps support the safe and efficient delivery of complex engineering projects, but it also ensures each system is designed with the end user in mind, encompassing passengers, operational roles and maintenance roles.

We had a fantastic two days at the Connected Places Summit, discussing sustainable growth for regional economies and the role of data. ?? It was a valuable opportunity for our specialists to connect with a wide range of professionals and showcase our services in sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions. The engaging speakers and lively discussions were incredibly insightful, and our colleagues came away keen to continue the conversations with their teams back at SYSTRA. The event also highlighted the value of collaboration in fostering ingenuity and innovation, within businesses and cross-industry. ?? Associate Director Ian Bruce commented ??? “I had a really interesting two days connecting with professionals across a range of sectors and learning more about AI in transport, decarbonisation and digital infrastructure. It was particularly inspiring to learn about the progress in rail and aviation accessibility for mobility-impaired passengers. It was also exciting to hear the evidence for the impact of the Bradford Clean Air Zone, which has been attributed to 600 fewer GP appointments relating to respiratory health in its first year of operation.” Find out more about how we design and implement sustainable and efficient transport solutions that enhance connectivity and accessibility, creating places that thrive ?? https://lnkd.in/e7z4UQnQ Connected Places Catapult #ConnectedPlacesSummit #transport #mobility #infrastructure #sustainableinfrastructure #sustainablegrowth #sustainabletransport #accessibility #transportinnovation #digitalinfrastructure #data #decarbonisation #AI #transportAI #artificialintelligence #rail #transportaccessibility #mobility

Our new Glasgow office has opened! ??

Our implementation of SYSTRA Vision on The Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU) East project has won at the SPOTLIGHT Rail Awards for ‘Best Use of Technology - Infrastructure’! ???? The 4D tool was recognised for proactively managing safety risks on the project through digital rehearsals of complex activities in a controlled, virtual environment. As part of the TRU East Alliance with Network Rail, Murphy, Siemens and VolkerRail Ltd, our digital engineering specialists have used SYSTRA Vision on a number of activities along the route, which allowed for early identification of potential hazards and inefficiencies, helping to reduce unforeseen risk, improve safety, and streamline planning and execution. Technical Director Rob Dale has commented ??? “Our implementation of SYSTRA Vision on the TRU project, and winning the SPOTLIGHT Rail Awards, showcases our commitment to innovation and safety leadership, demonstrating our expertise in combining cutting-edge technology with our in-depth engineering expertise.” Find out more about the win and SYSTRA Vision here ?? https://lnkd.in/ecR4rkks #SYSTRAVision #TRU #TranspennineRouteUpgrade #TRUEast #SPOTLIGHTRailAwards #SPOTLIGHTRail #railawards #rail #railexcellence #railinnovation #railway #transport #transportinnovation #railtechnology #transporttechnology #infrastructure #3D #4D #railsafety #construction #constructionsafety #engineering

Our colleagues had a wonderful evening attending the ICE Yorkshire and Humber Awards last week and are delighted to have taken home two awards! ?? First was the Sir John Fowler Award for our work with Sheffield City Council on active travel research. Receiving recognition for our focus on equality, diversity and inclusion in active travel research highlights the care our specialists take to break down the barriers to active travel that many communities face. Having engaged with over 1000 locals from all walks of life, our research will serve as evidence for future cycling and walking developments throughout the city. ?? Associate Peter Edwards ??? “Our innovative research and engagement approach was recognised by the judges as having a community focus and ensuring those who might not ordinarily engage on active travel engagement had their voices heard.” Our second win of the evening was the Smeaton Award for work carried out on the Osmondthorpe Lane bridge replacement as part of the TRU East Alliance. ??
