The group benchmarks approaches, shares best practice and collaborates across projects, seeking greater resilience and efficiencies with planning, development and delivery of major programmes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":1602,"template":"","tags":[],"city":[],"class_list":["post-1600","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1600","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/38"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1600\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1602"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1600"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1600"},{"taxonomy":"city","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/imagine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/city?post=1600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
