Transportation and Structures
Fuss & O'Neill's Transportation and Structures team excels in resolving complex building, infrastructure and permitting challenges. We are business-minded experts who believe that successful projects must be planned and designed with sensitivity to the community, diligence to technical and functional criteria, and an awareness and knowledge of the client's costs.
Our many years of experience working with state transportation officials enhances our ability to streamline the design and permit approval cycle. Why? We know the agency requirements and understand their expectations. This avoids the client frustration associated with permit approvals, escalating construction costs, schedule delays and poor public relations with neighbors.
Our experts can work with you to address your unique project needs with many traditional, and cutting edge engineering applications, including:
Transportation: Planning, highway and traffic engineering, transportation oriented development (TOD), smart growth, traffic signals and intelligent transportation system (ITS), complete streets, pedestrian and bikeway measures, traditional neighborhood design, and new urbanism strategies.
Building Structures: Condition surveys, building assessments, design of renovations, and new construction. Health and safety plans, shoring and scaffolding, special inspections, foundations, containment structures, and many specialty structural engineering appliations.
Bridges: Inspection, evaluation, and load rating of existing structures to the design of bridge repairs, rehabilitations, replacements, and new structures.
Fuss & O’Neill’s Transportation and Structures team works internally with experts in land development, surveying, and environmental assessment, to produce creative solutions and provide the total answers our clients need.
