The mega trends of the 21st century will bring increased levels of urbanization as the global population is set to grow to 10 billion by 2050. This demands advanced infrastructure across roads, railways, ports and waterways, airports, energy resources and communication networks. At the same time, in mature markets, limited government budgets mean that more effective ways to manage infrastructure assets through to refurbishment and optimization programs are needed. These shifts require forward thinking on mobility, connectivity, safety, durability, aesthetics and sustainable quality of life – this is infrastructure beyond the technical; this is Total Mobility.

TUNNELING INTO THE FUTURE Tunnels are increasingly seen as a means of achieving transport objectives in a manner that is both environmentally responsible and highly effective where space is limited. ARCADIS reflects this thinking with a proactive approach in which we identify and access the right senior engineers and specialists within our global network, and by involving first class project managers at every stage of the project. In this way, we assume responsibility for all disciplines, from the technical to the ecological and socio-economic, via a suite of proven and high quality underground structure services.
