In addition, Aecom will be a major sub-consultant on I-78, responsible for road design and interchange geometry analysis associated with an interchange with Pennsylvania Route 61 in Hamburg.

Aecom will also act as programme manager in Philadelphia, responsible for day-to-day activities associated with the US$500m (£328m) reconstruction on I-95 and its interchange with the Betsy Ross Bridge.
