Rendel is experienced in providing services across all phases of transportation programmes from planning studies through to construction. Our specialisations include urban integration, track design, architectural design, highway design, cycleway design, road safety audits, construction supervision, administrative procedures, economic studies, maintenance, operating capacity, equipment and systems, environment and alignment.
Rendel’s Transportation team has been instrumental in prestigious transportation projects worldwide, including the 50km Channel Tunnel connecting the UK to France. Rendel’s services encompassed feasibility studies, conceptual designs, detailed designs, traffic modelling, site investigations, budgeting, risk assessments, and construction supervision. More recently, Rendel has been involved in the flagship Coventry Very Light Rail (CVLR) scheme in the UK. This innovative project implemented a shallow trackform that sits just 30 centimetres into the road surfacing, a significant departure from traditional tram track design which mitigates the significant cost of relocation of utilities such as water, gas, and electricity.
