Momentum Transport opens regional hub in Bristol, UK 

Momentum Transport Consultancy, a leading UK transport consultancy, today announced the opening of a new regional hub in Bristol, UK, reflecting the company’s ambition to provide progressive transport and mobility solutions and urban design in towns and cities across the UK.  

The growth into Bristol builds on the success of Momentum’s established teams in London, Montreal and Houston.  

Momentum’s new regional hub will be led by Alex Henderson, and will offer transport planning, data analytics, people and vehicle modelling, and civil engineering services across sectors in the South West and Wales, including commercial, residential, mixed-use industrial and stadia.  

Alex Henderson, associate and regional lead – South West at Momentum said: “Bristol has a strong track record in sustainable urban development and transport innovation, with significant regeneration opportunities across the West of England, including Temple Quarter and the West Innovation Arc corridor towards Bath. The region’s focus on active travel, improved public transport and low-carbon infrastructure aligns closely with Momentum’s expertise in transport planning and masterplanning support. 

“Establishing a presence here enables us to build deeper relationships with local authorities, developers and design teams, contribute to shaping high-quality growth, and attract top regional talent who share our ambition to deliver smarter, more sustainable transport solutions.” 

Will Durden, founding director at Momentum Transport Consultancy, said: “We’ve worked on projects in Bristol and the South West for a number of years – including on the YTL Arena and the Brabazon masterplan – and it’s an exciting time for us to now set up a permanent home in Bristol to build on our experience.”
