“We are privileged to be working on projects that shape how we live and work. We help clients make smarter decisions to ensure our cities, regions and communities thrive.

This could be about unlocking the potential of the last remaining brownfield site in the city. Or how to optimise land use around a transport interchange. It could also involve delving into how we fund infrastructure, anticipating the benefits, not only for us but also for future generations.”

"Close to Atlas’ heart is the issue of housing that is suitable, secure and affordable. We have been doing a lot of work in this space but there is still much to do.

Buying a place to live is not for everyone. So, we need to ensure our policy and market settings can cater to our society’s diverse housing needs. We work with long time horizons because our partners are building for the future, so they need to get it right. We understand that and get that our work needs to be thorough. It also needs to be relevant and sustainable for the long-term."
