HDR has appointed Steve Feeney as transportation manager for the United Kingdom, a key growth area for the firm’s global multidisciplinary professional services consultancy.
In his new role, Feeney will expand HDR’s business in the U.K.’s transportation infrastructure markets, including highways and bridges, transit and heavy rail, aviation, ports and maritime. He will leverage the firm’s extensive North American, Middle East, and Asia-Pacific experience to provide holistic advisory, architectural and engineering services to transportation clients across the U.K.

“Working with HDR’s global transportation professionals, as well as the established U.K. team, we have a fantastic opportunity to offer clients innovative and sustainable transportation solutions,” Feeney said. “My main goal is to leverage HDR’s diverse multidisciplinary expertise and tailored approach to deliver the same level of excellence within the U.K. that HDR is known for in other markets and regions across the globe.”
Based in London, Feeney joins more than 300 HDR employees in the U.K., and 13,000-plus employees worldwide. As manager of the firm’s U.K. transportation practice, he will work with other regional leaders to strengthen the transport practice and partner with a worldwide network of technical leaders to offer streamlined multidisciplinary solutions. Feeney will also build strategic partnerships with other firms and be responsible for delivering an exceptional client experience.
“Steve’s considerable experience and background in the transportation industry will be a valuable asset for HDR’s clients in the U.K.,” said HDR Global Transportation President Tom McLaughlin. “We’re excited to grow our portfolio and bring our diversified skillset and experience in the global transportation infrastructure market to improve mobility, strengthen economies, and enhance quality of life in communities across the U.K.”
