Lily Grimshaw

Pavements Consulting Team Leader 

BE (Civil), MEngNZ 

Lily is an all-rounder with experience in multiple disciplines including geotechnical engineering, asset management, pavement testing and analysis, pavement design, and developing new technology. She enjoys taking any problem and finding pragmatic solutions. She works closely with numerous sectors and clients including:  

  • Local governments (councils) to provide roading data and consulting advice on road maintenance and renewal as well as to develop tools to make better use of their data 

  • Regional and International Airports to assess the structural condition of their pavement assets 

  • National roading authorities such as Waka Kotahi on new and mature roading assets 

  • Regional councils to assess, remediate and monitor landslides along rivers as well as analyse floodbank stability 

In addition to consulting, Lily has co-authored several published papers:
