Deon Pretorius Email & Phone Number

Based in South Africa, I am a highly skilled civil engineer specialising in urban infrastructure planning and design, including large masterplanning projects in the Middle East, Asia and North Africa.I have been responsible for the management of a diverse range of projects across national, provincial and local government tiers, as well as private built environment developments across Southern Africa, including for blue chip clients. This also includes the planning and design of human settlement developments to achieve enhanced liveability for communities. Each project has been significant in its own right – from providing engineering for basic services in Cape Town’s informal settlements, such as a sewage connection, to designing a simple parking area for a library, which makes a difference to the lives of people by improving access to knowledge and their future growth.Some of the iconic projects I have worked on include:- Lahore Walled City, Pakistan - Palm Deira, UAE- Zuwara Abu Kamash, Libya My goal is to ensure unsurpassed project participation which is without a doubt essential for successful project delivery. Getting this wrong is associated with wasted investment and high lifetime costs.Don’t hesitate to contact me for current references to initiatives in creating more sustainable, innovative cities.
