Andy Chan

Ir. Andy Chan is an Executive Director at AECOM with extensive experience in managing, designing, and implementing Smart Mobility and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) projects in Hong Kong and Asia.

Throughout his 30-year tenure at AECOM, his expertise spans Traffic Control and Surveillance Systems (TCSS), Area Traffic Control Systems (ATCS), Free-flow Tolling System (FFTS) and In-Vehicle Units (IVU), Connected Vehicles and Automated Vehicles (CV/AV), as well as transport planning and highway engineering design for the New Development Areas in Hong Kong.

From developing the Traffic and Incident Management System (TIM System) in 2011 to installing Traffic Detectors on selected strategic routes and Toll Information Display Systems (TIDS) for Hong Kong’s three road harbour crossings and Tai Lam Tunnel in 2024, Andy has been instrumental in driving ITS and smart mobility solutions in Hong Kong.

These initiatives help optimize mobility and connectivity, reduce congestion and enhance the integration of public transportation with real-time updates. The availability of real-time data, in turn, creates a seamless, flexible, and integrated experience to benefit all travelers.

My Sustainability Goals for 2024:

• The first and last mile experience of a commuter’s journey becomes very crucial with people-centric smart mobility gaining traction as a key aspect of smart cities. I look forward to fostering the implementation of advanced smart mobility such as green transit systems, connected and autonomous vehicles (CV/AV), electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft, electric mobility devices (EMD).
• Enhance connectivity between Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area to foster the development of green mobility.
