Mobility for all people for improving
the quality of life, while at the same time
using natural and economic resources sen-
sibly, is essentially what society demands
of a modern transport infrastructure. De-
signing and building sustainable transport
routes create the preconditions for meet-
ing the public and private sectors ever
growing needs for mobility, for maintain-ing and improving the quality of green and
residential space and for preserving and
enhancing the attractiveness of business
locations.
n Efficient solutions
Increasingly scarce resources challenge
designers to provide economically and
ecologically efficient project solutions withregard to construction and operation. These
solutions must have a low impact on nature
and the environment, be acceptable to the
directly affected population, affordable
to society as well as comfortable, reliable
and safe.
To enable designers to meet the inter-
disciplinary requirements, it is necessary to
use team- and target-oriented work methods
and swift design processes. This approach
guarantees top-quality and cost-focussed
solutions that are completed on time while
taking account of all aspects of a transport
and traffic project such as design and con-
struction, nature and environment, transport
and operation.
From the start, ILFs corporate philosophy
has enabled its engineers to successfully
complete a wide range of transport and traffic
projects in railway, road and airport construc-
tion to the fullest satisfaction of its clients. ILF
employs qualified engineers with many years
of experience in designing and providing
expert support to transport projects, using
comprehensive specialist software and
organisational measures in line with quality
assurance principles.
It is the aim of ILF Consulting Engineers to
offer their clients complete in-house services
for a project. When planning and carrying outsuch projects, ILF can draw upon specialist
disciplines such as tunnelling, construction
engineering, water engineering, mechanical
and electrical engineering, geology and
environment, occupational safety and health
management. During the project preparation
stage and project execution stage, ILF under-
takes the coordination of safety and health
plans as well as site supervision and project
management.M o b i l i t y i s

As mobility is increasingly shifting
towards private motorised transport, the
road in all its forms - from access roads
to motorways - constitutes the most im-
portant element of a modern traffic andtransport system.
n Transportation mode: road
Today, the design and construction of
roads not only requires expert qualification
but also special environmental awareness,and as such constitutes an essential pre-
requisite for the feasibility of road and
motorway projects.
Adhering to this principle, ILF Consult-
ing Engineers have rendered design and
consulting services for many successful road
construction projects in the past years. These
projects have included the construction,
upgrade and rehabilitation of cycle paths,
park & ride facilities, and roads from local
highways through to major trunk connections
and motorways.
ILF Consulting Engineers ensure overall
project success by integrating qualifiedexperts, available mostly in-house, into
the design team. Other focal points of road
projects are the organisation and conduct
of public relations activities that ILF carries
out together with experienced professionals
after contract award.
n ILFs design services for road
and motorway projects include
the following:
Studies of alternatives, route selectionprocedures, feasibility studies and
economic analyses
Preliminary design
Permit application design and design
documents for the Environmental Impact
Assessment (EIA) and all other permitting
procedures, as well as assisting the Client
in these procedures
Tender design and tender evaluation

o f r a i l w a y r o u t e sn Transportation mode: rail
The growing need for mobility and the
evident limits of growth, with the resulting
call for environmental protection and con-
servation of natural resources, bring railway
transport back into focus.
The attractiveness of railway transport
can only be increased by implementing a wide
range of measures aimed at creating and
maintaining a modern rail infrastructure.
ILF Consulting Engineers design services
have contributed significantly to the success
of numerous projects carried out in many
different countries to the satisfaction of the
customers. The services encompass both the
construction of new high-speed railway linesand the modernisation of existing lines for
standard-gauge and narrow-gauge railways.
Just as in road construction, in rail trans-
port ILF pays great attention to an interdisci-
plinary project development and to the pro-
tection of the environment.
n For the design and support of
railway projects, ILF Consulting
Engineers offer the following
services:
Studies of alternatives, route selec-
tion procedures, feasibility studies and
economic analyses

n Urban transport systems
The quality of public transport significant-
ly influences the attractiveness of large cities
in terms of housing, living and working.
In order to meet future needs and to avoid
such problems as traffic jams, additional traf-
fic generated by the search for parking spaces,
as well as noise and air pollution, many large
cities today promote the use of underground
and city railway systems. These transport
systems are generally very complex in nature,
requiring extensive engineering structures
(tunnels, bridges, etc.) and imposing great
demands on engineering offices as regards
interdisciplinary project management.
In order to perform the design tasks
involved in these projects in a professional
manner, ILF draws upon its pool of qualifieddesigners with many years of experience in
construction projects at home and abroad.
The scope of services includes underground
and city railway systems, from modernising
and upgrading existing lines to constructing
new ones.
ILF is also well versed in implementing
projects which are realised under public-
private partnerships.

n Rapidly growing airports
The significance of modern airports can
best be understood by looking at the rapid
increase in air traffic. The last ten years haveseen a two-digit growth rate in air traffic,
passenger and freight volumes, creating a
pressing need for forward-looking concepts
for airports. Competent overall design is a
prerequisite for making optimum use of the
existing and future potential of airports.
Together with their associated partners
ILF Consulting Engineers offer services for
airside facilities and airport equipment and
technology. As regards implementation, we
offer advisory and consulting services to the
airport management, from conceptual design
to construction supervision.
The airports at Vienna, Berlin, Leipzig,
Stuttgart, Auckland, Washington Dulles and
many others are proof of the capabilities of
ILF and its partners.

n Noise control
Today, large parts of the population are
exposed to traffic noise, which reduces their
quality of life. When designing and buildingnew traffic routes, noise protection plays
an important role when it comes to public
discussion and acceptance of infrastructure
projects.
Noise control measures are increas-
ingly also required along existing main
traffic routes to protect current residential
areas from steadily growing noise levels and
to prepare prospective residential areas for
development.
ILF has long-standing project experience
in developing and implementing effective and
environmentally acceptable noise protectionmeasures along traffic routes.

n Focus on safety
One of the fields of expertise where ILF
is well known in Europe is safety and risk
management, especially for road and railway
tunnels as well as underground railways and
other infrastructure projects.
In recent years constructional safety
measures and organisational requirements
have become the central issues in permit-
ting procedures. Triggered by catastrophic
accidents such as the fires in the Montblanc
and Tauern road tunnels and in Kaprun, safety
issues have become the centre of public
attention and play a decisive role in the de-
sign, construction and operation of modern
infrastructure projects.
In order to establish safety-specific
design fundamentals and a sound decision-making basis, potential hazards and risks
entailed in the operation or transport are
systematically specified and quantified. This
serves to establish the technical project
requirements and to define them in the form
of equipment concepts and basic emergency
response strategies. Prior to opening the
facility to traffic, these concepts are further
developed into detailed organisation charts
and emergency response plans.
ILFs capabilities are based on many
years of professional know-how, compre-
hensive international project experience and
close contact across Europe with the bodies
entrusted with the further development of
safety and risk management.
