HOUSTON, Texas (PRWEB) June 20, 2018 -- International engineering firm Walter P Moore announces two key promotions within the firm’s Infrastructure Group, which encompasses civil and water resources engineering; traffic, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), and transportation engineering; and transportation planning.
Thomas Duncan, P.E., PTOE has been promoted to Director of Traffic Engineering Services, responsible for overseeing the firm’s traffic groups located in Houston, Dallas, El Paso, Kansas City, Washington, D.C., and Pune (India). He formerly served as the Managing Director of Traffic for the firm’s Houston office.

A Principal of the firm, Thomas has successfully managed numerous complex projects encompassing data collection and forecasting, traffic simulations, and the design, planning, and development of road realignments, and rail crossings.
“I have every confidence that Thomas will continue to lead all of our traffic engineering groups as adeptly as he has in the Houston office. His promotion has made my own recent role transition a seamless one,” said Jennifer Peek, Executive Director of Infrastructure for Walter P Moore (who transitioned from Director of Traffic Engineering Services earlier this year).
Victor De la Garza, P.E. has been promoted to Managing Director, El Paso Traffic/ITS Engineering Services, responsible for managing operations and staff for Walter P Moore’s El Paso office and continuing as a primary point of contact for clients.
