Imagine sidewalks brimming with life. Protected bike lanes. Plentiful commute options. Public transit that builds opportunity. This is the world we are working to create. The projects we take on always help to achieve broader community goals. We aren’t in the business of widening highways, expanding parking lots, or designing drive-thrus. We put people first.

Professional development matters, whether you’re starting your career or growing it. Our Internship Program equips budding planners and engineers with on-the-job experience, and our Mentorship Program helps people navigate their career journey from any stage. Our Leadership Academy supports the career development of our teammates by fostering connections, growing leadership skills, and providing a pathway for growth in the firm. We also provide a yearly professional development stipend—for conferences, courses, books, you name it—on top of reimbursing professional licensing fees.

We tackle a range of sustainable transportation projects in communities of all sizes throughout North America. From transit and active transportation to curb management and commute support, the work we do is as diverse as our team.
