We are very pleased to announce that Tim Crow has joined our team as a consulting engineer. He comes to us from six and a half years at Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency. He says, “I feel extremely fortunate for the opportunities I’ve had at Waka Kotahi. In particular the positive impact on communities the projects I’ve been involved in has had.” Tim worked on the Kaikoura Earthquake Recovery, where literal mountains were moved to reconnect the community, to the Speed and Infrastructure Programme, where he is proud to say there are now 160 fewer deaths or serious injuries per year on our transport system, and that reduction is expected to grow. At Resolve he will continue to work with clients to achieve better outcomes for communities.

Please contact him if you want:
– an independent design review
– safety by design facilitator
– road safety auditing
– Project/Programme Management support

or just wish to discuss a challenge you may be facing.

Every six months we get together to look at what we’ve achieved over the last six months, to plan where we want to go in the next six, and to strengthen the sense amongst all the staff that we are part of the same team and working towards the same goals.

For our most recent planning day, we participated in a charity team event called Build My Ride. All the challenges were themed around cycling and successful completion of each challenge earned the team parts for a bike. The final task was for each of the four teams to assemble their bike and have it checked over for safety by a qualified bike mechanic.

As enjoyable as all the challenges were, the final activity – handing those bikes over to deserving kids through the Refugee Service – gave massive satisfaction and significantly added to the sense of community within the individual teams and amongst us all. At the end of the day, we had shared in an experience that made us feel good about ourselves and each other, and we all felt truly touched.
