Area of expertise
|
>> Water
|
We are active in the specialised fields described below.
|
|
>> Infrastructure
|
For Witteveen+Bos success stems equally from developing scenarios for orchestrating alteration of the Eindhoven ring road as from building the western orbital motorway around Amsterdam or using relatively simple means to build a tram line in Bucharest.
|
|
>> Environment |
Sustainable development necessitates interaction between the spatial development and environmental disciplines. Witteveen+Bos’s specialists in spatial development and environmental issues make a pivotal contribution through their ability and willingness to look beyond the fences of their own domains. From this baseline our experts have helped to complete numerous projects in the Netherlands and other countries. Our activities range from working in distinct fields to assuming integral responsibility, but without losing sight of interfaces with other disciplines. Our overarching approach produces numerous benefits through close cooperation between experts from different parts of our firm.

>> Construction
|
Witteveen+Bos can guide these developments from the requirement analysis phase to implementation. We do so by combining our extensive knowledge in project and process management with financial and technical expertise, as well by combining our substantial knowledge of urban areas with that of buildings. Through this, we can create a pleasant and sustainable living and working environment on both the macro and micro level, now and in the future.
