Yorkshire town celebrates 15 years of business with new client wins and expansion

Local Transport Projects (LTP) has celebrated 15 years in business where it has grown from startup offices in Beverley to a transport planning and traffic engineering practice.

Founded in 2004 by co-directors, Tony Kirby and Andy Mayo, LTP has since worked with over 770 different clients completing nearly 3,000 jobs, including 565 transport assessments and 545 road safety audits.

Tony Kirby, director, said: “We are incredibly proud to have reached such a significant milestone and come such a long way since we started LTP, which has proven itself across transport planning and highway engineering work with a list of clients and contracts.”

Now headquartered at the Flemingate Centre in Beverley, LTP operates throughout the UK. It has won contracts including Cycle Network Plan with Cardiff Council; Transport for London’s Motorcycle Highway Design Handbook; and TfL’s Quietways cycle routes with Sustrans.

Its local authority and private sector work includes transport planning and highway design for new schools across London and the South East, as well as transport assessment and work place travel planning for RB’s new £105m research and development centre in Hull.

Andy Mayo, director, added: “As a professional service organisation, our customers are our highest priority and our staff are the most important asset.

“People are at the heart of the LTP business and we take pride in nurturing professional talent from recruiting through paid internships leading to permanent roles, hiring graduates and apprentices and sponsoring staff through professional qualifications and Master’s degree courses.”
