Traffic and transport pressures are problematic for three main reasons: they stifle economic growth, contribute to higher carbon emissions, and inconvenience millions of people. Together with public and private clients, I help to relieve these pressures in our ever-expanding cities, through sustainable development and innovation.
As the former Director of the Northern Advisory Group & Botswana at Royal HaskoningDHV, I led teams of smart people who design robust and integrated transport networks and mobility nodes that improve urban movement. Through smart, environmentally-conscious approaches, we help our clients to enhance society and change lives.
With considerable experience in urban traffic control, strategic transport planning, multi-disciplinary project management, and property development, I approach every project with dynamic thinking, sustained focus, and financial and business acumen.
My career highlights include designing an advanced parking management system that improved efficiency at Brisbane Airport’s domestic terminal parking from 65% to 95%; developing an Intelligent Transport System Framework for the City of Johannesburg; and optimising and synchronising mobility arterials and traffic signals, to help the Johannesburg Roads Agency (JRA) reduce congestion, improve traffic flow, and decrease emissions.
Good to know:
I have completed successful projects in South Africa, Botswana, Australia, and the USA.
I have been published in various technical magazines, including SAICE, Engineering News, and Thinking Highways.
My qualifications include BSc (Hons) degrees in civil engineering and transportation planning, and a number of specialised courses in transport and road safety.
I’m registered with the Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA) and the South African Institution of Civil Engineering (SAICE).
I enjoy biking and deep sea diving.
I have been voted father of the year, every year, by my two kids, Miamae and Jayden.
