Transit & Rail
Designing tomorrow’s transit systems—today
The ability to connect to, experience, and interact with one’s surroundings with relative ease is a fundamental aspect of the rapidly evolving world of mobility. Our specialists work in every mode of transit including light rail, intercity rail, subway, streetcar, conventional bus, and bus rapid transit. We challenge conventional thinking at every stage to provide revolutionary, yet realistic options for safe, efficient, and affordable transit.
From the first mile to the last, we bring the newest technologies to our clients and their communities. Our consultative approach helps agencies select the best transit modes for their unique needs—and enables their systems to be regularly improved and intelligently expanded. Whether designing a new system or modernizing an existing one, our primary objective remains constant—assure the safety, security, and comfort of our client’s passengers for generations to come.
A sustainable future
Whether powered by batteries or hydrogen, Zero Emission Buses stand to make a significant positive impact on our environment, health, and economy. This isn’t an overnight transition from traditional transit; we’ve been designing our infrastructure around diesel- and gas-powered transit for decades. Thankfully, we understand the challenges of this switch and can help you plan for an emissions-free future. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, we collaborate with transit agencies to better the lives of everyone in their communities. Read MoreCity transit
Rapidly evolving cities demand modern and accessible transit systems—systems that support the people and businesses that make them run. However, keeping a city’s subway stations and entrances up to date involves a complex level of expertise and coordination. Our transit team members are trusted experts, delivering integrated transit design that meets local requirements and commuter needs. Within one of the world’s busiest systems, we’re helping transit make an entrance through updates, enhancements, and expansions. Read MoreDena Abakumov, Principal, Transit & Rail Sector Lead
