Our traffic engineers provide consulting services in neighborhood traffic management (NTM) to prevent or manage intrusion of cut-through traffic in residential communities. We have a clear understanding of community-based decision making and establishing consensus in planning, design and implementation stages of the process for successful outcomes. Our years of experience in traffic operations and provide the essential expertise necessary to communicate with city, county and state planners and engineers to recommend solutions that meet the local jurisdiction policies and regulations. We can work independently to develop citywide traffic calming programs for various size jurisdictions as well as team with other firms to provide broader engineering services on traffic calming measures for neighborhood traffic management plans.
