About Momentum

Momentum is an integrated transport consultancy, based in London and with offices in Edinburgh and Montreal. Our three core specialisms of planning, analytics & modelling and engineering are bound together by our shared vision to improve the environments we live, work and play in.

We work on some of the most exciting and challenging development infrastructure projects in London and cities around the world – from 
large commercial skyscrapers to sports stadiums and major events. We are highly regarded by our clients, who include major developers, architects, contractors and local authorities.

Momentum’s engineers take the lead in all aspects of transport infrastructure and public realm design and construction – we support our clients across the project lifecycle, from ideas generation at inception and planning stages, through to detailed design and working on site overseeing construction.

We’re at the forefront of fighting climate change and are proud of the way we work with our clients every day to push sustainability boundaries and challenge ourselves to do things better. As part of all the projects we work on, we look at how to reduce and minimise the predicted impacts from the development and project. Every day our work ensures more people can travel sustainably, while also creating safe, liveable, well-planned and equitable places and neighbourhoods.
