Peter is Chairman of the UKTI Airports Advisory Council which advises the British Government on matters relating to airport trade policy and until recently led Arup’s global aviation business.
Peter has a long, deep relationship with China. He first worked on the design of projects in China in the early 1980s and, as a Director of Arup, was responsible for the design of airport projects in Xi’an, Chongqing, Beijing and Kunming.
Under Peter’s leadership Arup has worked on a wide range of projects at airports throughout the world, learning from experience and applying the lessons learnt for the benefit of clients. Arup’s airport offering ranges from transaction advice, landside, airside and terminal planning, sustainability and environmental engineering design, logistics, IT systems, security and operations and training. All of these areas of activity contribute to successful, sustainable airport development. Projects outside of China include Terminal 5 Heathrow, JetBlue Terminal JFK, Rajiv Ghandi International Airport Hyderabad, Raleigh Durham Expansion USA and more recently Hong Kong’s new mid field terminal.
