Planning and Management
Innovative solutions to address transportation issues, present and future.
Innovative solutions to address transportation issues, present and future.
As leaders in strategic planning, policy, analysis and management consulting and through engaged, collaborative partnerships, sound modeling techniques and cutting-edge research, we inform the development of key transportation policies and help Departments of Transportation and Metropolitan Planning Organizations design and implement effective management solutions, strategic plans, long-range plans and corridor plans.
Safety is at the forefront of everything we do. We support Highway Safety Improvement Programs, State Highway Safety Offices, and metropolitan planning organizations – from setting safety performance measures, targets and priorities to developing Strategic Highway Safety Plans, Highway Safety Plans, Local Road Safety Plans, and traffic safety coalition strategic plans, to providing assistance in improving their traffic records information systems, to program and project implementation. We use a holistic, Safe System approach to help agencies reach their safety goals.
Our focus on keeping people safe translates to helping agencies create resilient systems. We do this by completing vulnerability assessments and developing strategic plans that emphasize anticipating, preparing for, withstanding and responding to changing conditions while being prepared to recover rapidly from disruptions. We use a comprehensive approach that supports agencies in integrating resilience into decision-making and processes and addresses a wide range of hazards from extreme weather to sea-level rise to pandemic. Our approach considers how to make our infrastructure, our agencies, and our communities more agile and resilient.
