About the firm

Principal: Geoff Noxon, M.Sc., P.Eng.

Geoff founded Noxon Associates in 2001 after 12 years with Delcan (now Parsons) and the Region of Ottawa-Carleton, where he led sustainable mobility planning and programs. With Noxon Associates he spent 17 years working with governments and national NGOs to develop effective strategies for active transportation, public transit, and transportation demand management.

In 2018, he joined the Transportation Association of Canada (TAC) where he directed the development of national technical guidance, managed a network of 30 councils and committees with 1,000 volunteers, created a training program, delivered webinars and awards, and oversaw Canada’s only remaining transportation library.

In 2025, he re-opened Noxon Associates to provide strategy and communications services to Canadian transportation organizations.

Geoff is a long-time TAC volunteer and recipient of its Award for Service. He is a 36-year member of ITE, and in 2025 he received the Ata Khan Lifetime Achievement Award from ITE Canada’s National Capital Section. Geoff earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Civil Engineering from Queen’s University, and is registered as a Professional Engineer in Ontario.
