Transportation

Sustainable transport systems are becoming increasingly important initiatives locally, regionally, and nationally. Transport systems have significant impacts on the environment, accounting for nearly 25 percent of the world’s energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. Sustainable transportation planning and design strive to optimize continuous traffic flows to reduce start and stop times, congestion, and vehicle idle times, ultimately contributing to a reduction in air emissions and reliance on fossil fuels.

Services We Provide Include…

• Corridor studies
• Advanced traffic modeling and simulation
• Unnecessary signal reduction
• Signal timing optimization
• Roundabout incorporation

We are familiar with a variety of recycled and sustainable materials that can be used for road reconstruction and paving projects, as well as sustainable construction techniques such as full depth pavement reclamation. We understand the environmental impacts of heat islands and roadway construction and work to mitigate adverse environmental impacts where possible. We consider reduction in energy usage on transportation projects by incorporating LED street and signal lights into designs. We also have a great deal of experience in finding creative ways to incorporate green elements within the right of way in order to manage stormwater runoff from roadways.
