Highway Engineer - Highway Expert Witness

Highway Expert Witness

The Highway Engineer may at some time in their career be asked to act as a highway expert witness. This can be in relation to a safety matter involving an accident in the highway or on private land, through to complex public inquiries on major planning applications. Highway expert witnesses appear in legal cases at local Magistrates Courts and County Courts, through to the High Court and the Royal Courts of Justice in London.

Highway expert witnesses are involved in planning applications and appeals, planning enforcement appeals, public highway closures and Traffic Regulation Orders, and public rights of way issues (closures and diversions).

The Highway Engineer will provide highway expert witness evidence on behalf of both private and public sector clients and will be fully aware of their duty to the court to provide honest, consistent, unbiased, professional advice at all times.
