Our civil and structural engineers work with public and private clients to improve transportation infrastructure. We understand the technical aspects of transportation design and continue to look for ways to apply innovative solutions.

We collaborate with a variety of public and private partners—balancing client needs, funding requirements and regulatory processes—to successfully complete a project.

This may include compliance with environmental requirements, such as NEPA, or coordinating with Federal and State agencies, including State DOTs, United States Army Corps of Engineers and State Departments of Natural Resources.
