Development and infrastructure consultancy Peter Brett Associates has welcomed Richard Reed as a graduate transport planner in its Manchester office.

Reed has relocated from the graduate programme at the firm's Birmingham office and has been involved in projects such as the Birmingham Cycle Revolution. Reed has worked on various aspects of the planning process, producing transport assessments and travel plans for residential, commercial and retail developments.

Bernard Greep, director and head of Peter Brett in Manchester, said: "We are pleased to welcome Richard to our Manchester office. Richard will help to service our growing portfolio of work now that the economy is well and truly in recovery mode."

There are now 17 fee-earners in the Manchester office, which is in Oxford Street.
