It’s been six months since Gary Soo joined our Perth office, and in that time, his extensive experience in transport modelling and traffic engineering has already made a significant contribution. 

With over 12 years in the transport engineering field, Gary brings specific skillset in future scenario testing, blending technical precision and practical thinking. His background spans greenfield masterplan development to complex urban redevelopments. Across each of these settings, he has maintained a sharp focus on data-driven solutions that are commercially attuned and grounded in real-world functionality. 

At PJA, Gary has been applying his modelling expertise to the ongoing development of Alkimos Central which he has worked on for almost a decade through the various planning stages. More recently, Gary has embarked on the Busselton Gateway Industrial Park, helping shape transport outcomes that are not only efficient but also sustainable and user-focused. His ability to translate modelling insights into clear, actionable design advice has quickly become an asset to both colleagues and clients. 

“I’ve always believed that good transport planning doesn’t happen organically, it requires innovative thinking and collaborative working. At PJA, there’s a shared commitment to that philosophy, and it’s been great to work alongside a team that values evidence-based, outcomes,” says Gary. 

Gary’s experience in complex transport simulation and traffic analysis brings an analytical depth that complements PJA’s broader placemaking thinking. As transport challenges across Australian cities grow more interconnected and nuanced, voices like Gary’s, with a focus on practical implementation, are essential in helping PJA shape the cities of the future. 

We’re excited to have Gary on board as we continue to deliver thoughtful, people-first transport solutions across Western Australia and beyond.
