Kevin Yeung is fascinated with mobility and the way it shapes cities. He strives to improve the way people move whether it be by foot, bike, car, bus or train. Yeung completed his Master of Applied Science in civil engineering and planning at the University of Waterloo. His research focused in modelling the decisions of households as they allocate resources to meet their travel demands. In particular, he developed a model for Kitchener-Waterloo that schedules household activities and trips given a set of travel demands and constraints. He has previously held the Alexander Graham Bell Canada Graduate Scholarship from the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council. He is currently working as a transport consultant with Arup in London, England focusing on rail passenger demand models and forecasts. Through the co-op program at Waterloo, he has also worked for a Canadian transportation consulting firm, a municipal light rail transit project team, and a regional transportation agency.
