Highways & Streets
Our nation’s roadways are critical assets that connect communities and drive commerce. State and local agencies face many challenges as infrastructure ages, mobility increases, and budgets decline. From complex urban freeways to two-lane rural roadways, Burgess & Niple examines projects from every angle, providing innovative solutions that help clients reduce costs and attain the vision they have for their community.
Communication
Clear, open and ongoing communication is an important part of every project we undertake. Our clients stay engaged through routine check-ins and consultation to help ensure their expectations are met. For potentially controversial or sensitive projects, B&N plans and facilitates comprehensive public involvement programs that engage project stakeholders, increase public support, and keep our clients’ projects moving forward.
Practical Design
Our engineers use practical design methods to identify modifications that minimize project costs while maintaining safety and improving traffic flow.
