Harry Jorgensen
Senior Transport Planner, Ratio Consultants
Harry is a transport planner who sees streets as far more than just roads designed for moving vehicles from A to B as quickly as possible.
His approach to Movement and Place adopts a human-focused lens, recognising the important role streets play in supporting social interaction, enhancing local trade, and balancing competing transport modes within constrained road environments.
Harry has extensive experience undertaking Movement and Place assessments in both urban and regional contexts and enjoys providing transport justification to support meaningful placemaking opportunities.
