| WHAT WE DO > PLANNING
Let’s face it. We live in a time and place with extreme traffic congestion. Communities respond by finding ways to fix potentially hazardous conditions, provide safe routes for bicycles and pedestrians, develop easier access and parking for public spaces and buildings, and plan for long-term transportation needs. That’s where we come in. Transportation planning is a vital component of the services we offer. Our modelers are experts in current forecast and operation models, and GIS output makes the solutions easy to communicate to the public.
Keeping it moving
Commute Trip Reduction incentive programs and increased transit usage helps solve the traffic snarls. Our transit planners work with clients across the country on mass transit solutions.
Art and asphalt?
You’d be hard pressed to find anybody who enjoys looking at a bare strip of asphalt. That’s why urban design is another important part of what we do. Our streetscape design for Everett’s Hewitt Avenue not only replaced the trees in the medians, but also included context-sensitive street furniture. The design transformed this historic major arterial, making it pedestrian friendly and aesthetically pleasing.
Our team of comprehensive planners not only assists with the mandated 10-year updates that communities face, but also with the complex transportation elements that prioritize and cost out future projects. Park planning helps ensure that growing communities preserve open space. We don’t just build infrastructure, we plan livable communities.
