Through ACE Cymru Wales we champion Welsh infrastructure. The local group works closely with Government Ministers and the Welsh Government and will do so with the forthcoming National Infrastructure Commission for Wales. The group applies pressure for greater investment, but is also a trusted adviser to key clients and representatives in Cardiff.

Our group’s members have worked hard to nurture these relationships in recent years, providing a platform to share our collective expertise and knowledge with local politicians and civil servants. As the Welsh Assembly gains more local powers, we will continue to help it make informed decisions on infrastructure.

Significant projects like the New M4 around Newport and Swansea Bay Tidal Lagoon may steal the limelight, but there are huge opportunities for infrastructure across transport, energy, water, environment, education, health service, digital connectivity and housing projects.

ACE Cymru Wales will continue to make the case loud and clear that infrastructure is a key economic driver and is vital for Wales to realise its full potential.

The group meets monthly in Cardiff and companies interested in attending should contact our regional manager, Simon Shouler. Members include representatives of the following ACE member companies: AECOM, Amey, Arup, Arcadis, Burroughs, Cass Hayward, Mott MacDonald, Ramboll, Stantec, Tony Gee, WSP and many SMEs.

The Chair is Catherine Wenger of Arup.
