Arup strengthens surface water offering with appointment of industry expert Greg Rogencamp
02 July 2019
Greg Rogencamp, an industry expert
in infrastructure
flood risk management, has joined
Arup as Surface
Water Engineering Leader.
He brings more than 30 years’ experience in flood assessments for
infrastructure projects and strategic
flood risk management.
“Greg brings significant experience to Arup in flood
risk management.
His skills strengthen our ability to understand flood risks and identify
solutions for clients that consider
resilience and adaptation
opportunities. ”
As a recognised leader in this speciality area, Greg has worked on the
flooding aspects of a variety of linear infrastructure projects such as
highway, motorway,
rail and
tunnel flood immunity, at stages from route selection and
concept design through to detailed design. He was the flooding lead on
the
Woolgoolga to Ballina Pacific Highway Upgrade EIS.
His flood risk work has also included development of
flood management
strategies for large organisations including
Brisbane City Council, Queensland Department of Infrastructure,
Local Government and Planning, and the London Olympic Authority. He was
also the lead for the Lockyer Creek flood studies following the
devastating floods of January 2011.
“The growth of urban infrastructure and the community’s high
expectations for flood management provide opportunities to add real
value to these projects. There is also a continuing shift in managing
flood risks from mitigation to resilience and adaption. ”
“We are becoming more focussed on uncertainty in our field and
resilience plays a key role in that too. I’ve always been attracted to
the Arup culture and I’m looking forward to contributing my skills
across the Arup portfolio of services,” Greg said.
Greg has worked on major east-coast highway projects including Bruce
Highway Upgrade
Caloundra Road to Sunshine Motorway,
Gateway Upgrade
North and Pacific Highway Upgrade
Nambucca Heads to Urunga.
He joins Arup’s Surface Water team (flooding and stormwater), which is
currently engaged on a range of projects including
Haughton River
Floodplain Upgrade,
Inland Rail,
Coffs Harbour Bypass,
Deception Bay
Road Interchange and the recently awarded Queensland Rail Mt Isa Line
Flood Resilience Study.
Greg will work across projects in Australia, Singapore, New Zealand,
Indonesia and Malaysia as well as providing strategic direction in
Surface Water for the region.
