HDR announced the appointment of Steve Feeney as Head of Transportation for the United Kingdom, a key growth area for the firm’s global multidisciplinary professional services consultancy.
In his new role, Feeney will expand HDR’s business in the UK’s transportation infrastructure markets including highways and bridges, transit and heavy rail, aviation, ports and maritime.

Feeney has two decades of experience in the infrastructure industry, with a background spanning the UK, Asia and North America. His expertise includes project and programme management, commercial management, and organisational change.
Prior to joining HDR, Feeney held a senior leadership role at another infrastructure consultancy where he was responsible for securing rail consulting and design projects across Europe. He is said to have served as Programme Manager of Phase 1 enabling works for High Speed Two, a planned $72.3bn high speed rail network linking London with Birmingham.
“Working with HDR’s global transportation professionals, as well as the established UK team, we have a fantastic opportunity to offer clients innovative and sustainable transportation solutions. My main goal is to leverage HDR’s diverse multidisciplinary expertise and tailored approach to deliver the same level of excellence within the UK that HDR is known for in other markets and regions across the globe,” said Feeney.
“Steve’s considerable experience and background in the transportation industry will be a valuable asset for HDR’s clients in the UK. Our UK-based professionals are providing complete AEC project lifecycle advisory and design services to clients in numerous markets including commercial, real estate, telecom and data, health, power, and more. We’re excited to grow our portfolio and bring our diversified skillset and experience in the global transportation infrastructure market to improve mobility, strengthen economies, and enhance quality of life in communities across the UK,” added HDR Global Transportation President Tom McLaughlin.
Based in London, Feeney joins more than 300 HDR employees in the UK, and 13,000-plus employees worldwide. As the leader of the firm’s UK transportation practice, he will work with other regional leaders to strengthen the transport practice and partner with a worldwide network of technical leaders to offer streamlined multidisciplinary solutions.
