Jacobs has been awarded a multi-year contract by the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County's Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure, or NDOT, to deliver architecture and engineering services in support of the city's transformative Choose How You Move program. The program spans more than 50 project types, from multimodal planning and traffic operations to infrastructure design, environmental compliance and community engagement. Jacobs will serve as a strategic consultant for planned improvements. In addition to signal and sidewalk upgrades, the Choose How You Move program includes 54 miles of enhanced corridors and the introduction of dedicated transit lanes. Jacobs is already active in Nashville through its ongoing work on NDOT's Complete Streets program delivering integrated engineering and design solutions.

Jacobs was awarded an eight-year multi-disciplinary framework by Murphy to assist on projects within its SSEN Transmission portfolio. The framework encompasses numerous transmission and distribution infrastructure projects that support the U.K.'s shift toward a low-carbon future. Throughout this long-term collaboration, Jacobs will work alongside Murphy and their other partners to provide integrated and high-voltage electrical design, verification and assurance, engineering, environmental, geotechnical and civil services, with a shared commitment to safety, sustainability, innovation and resilience.

Jacobs, GHD and WSP have been appointed in a joint venture to design five new underground stations for Sydney Metro West - Stations Package West, one of the largest and most significant public transport projects currently underway in Australia. The 14.9-mile Sydney Metro West alignment will connect Greater Parramatta to the Sydney central business district. It will play a key role in improving access to fast, reliable public transport for growing communities, strengthening connections between Sydney's inner and western suburbs and supporting the delivery of new housing, jobs and local services along the corridor. Stations Package West is being delivered by Gamuda as lead contractor with design by Jacobs, GHD and WSP. The joint venture has been engaged to provide integrated engineering design services for Stations Package West - the stations at Westmead, North Strathfield, Burwood North, Five Dock and The Bays. Sustainability will be a core focus of the design approach, with station designs targeting a 6-Star Green Star As Built rating, reflecting a focus on high-performance and environmentally responsible infrastructure.
