An engineering company has expanded into Pennsylvania as a result of an acquisition.
VHB acquired Drive Engineering, a 16-year-old transportation engineering firm, with offices in East Pennsboro Township near Camp Hill; in Upper Gwynedd Township near Lansdale, Montgomery County, and in Philadelphia.
“This partnership reflects VHB’s commitment to shaping the future of mobility while growing our presence in key markets like Pennsylvania,” Michael Carragher, chair and CEO of VHB, said in a news release. “By combining Drive’s technology-informed approach with VHB’s integrated services, we can accelerate innovation and deliver smarter, more resilient transportation systems for communities across the East Coast.”
Terms of the agreement weren’t disclosed.
Drive Engineering co-founders Mario Toscano and Allie Slizofski will join VHB.
Officials at VHB said that through the acquisition, VHB will strengthen its capabilities in Intelligent Transportation Systems, traffic operations, and data-informed mobility planning.
New York-based VHB employs around 2,300 scientists, planners, and designers. The company was founded in 1979 and has more than 30 offices in 14 states and the District of Columbia.
