Engineering affects everyone's lives. From roads and railways we travel on, to the water we drink and the electricity we use, engineers are the providers. But the job is getting harder; resources are getting scarce; cities are filling up. Roads are congested. Railways are at capacity. New and innovative solutions are going to be needed.
The Engineers Collective is the podcast for those who are curious about the future and how engineers will keep our towns and cities running.
In each episode members of the New Civil Engineer editorial team are joined by industry guests to discuss key topics impacting our industry.
The Engineers Collective is sponsored by Bentley Systems. Around the world, engineers and architects, constructors and owner-operators are using Bentley’s software solutions to accelerate project delivery and improve asset performance for the infrastructure that sustains our economy and our environment. Together, we are advancing infrastructure. Find out more, at www.bentley.com.

Breaking down infrastructure commitments from the Spending Review with the ICE
The latest episode of the Engineers Collective is out now: listen in on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, your usual platform or the player below.
After a busy month of infrastructure commitments from the UK government, host Rob Hakimian welcomes Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) director of policy and external affairs Sam Gould to the podcast to discuss it all.
They touch on spending settlements for England’s city regions to upgrade their transport offerings, investment in the railways via projects such as HS2 and East West Rail, the large financial commitments to nuclear energy including Sizewell C and small modular reactors (SMRs) and more.
Gould also talks about what the updates to the Green Book could mean for improving delivery of infrastructure and the certainty that the release of the 10 Year Infrastructure Strategy will bring to private entities looking to invest in the UK’s future.
Prior to the interview portion, Rob is joined by NCE senior reporter Tom Pashby to discuss the Industrial Strategy, specifically the way that it entwines the UK’s civil nuclear and defence nuclear sectors.
