Traffic and Transportation Planning Services
Practical transportation planning for public agencies. Built to prevent delays before they start.
Clear direction in a complex transportation world
You’re juggling safety expectations, community pressure, tight budgets and accelerating timelines, often with incomplete data and multiple agencies involved. One thing we see consistently: transportation delays don’t start in construction. They start early, when planning and engineering teams aren’t aligned.
ACG helps you avoid those conflicts before they surface.
Our team connects mobility analysis, community priorities and cross-utility coordination into buildable concepts that carry through to design.
Good planning reduces redesign cycles, improves permitting success and builds public trust. When transportation, utilities and broadband work together from day one, your project moves forward with fewer surprises and greater clarity.
How we help
Planning and Development
Early decisions shape everything that follows. We help you reduce redesign cycles, strengthen permitting success and set a clear path for design and construction.
Services include:
- Planning and development assessments
- Project assessment reports
- Traffic impact studies
- Roadway and intersection scoping documents
- Engineering policy and procedure development
- Corridor and concept planning
- Multimodal analysis
- Early feasibility and scenario modeling
- Growth-aligned mobility strategies
- Integration with land use, utility and broadband planning
OUTCOME
Early clarity that reduces rework, supports funding and builds public confidence.
Roadway Design
When planning and design stay aligned, projects move faster and avoid costly iteration. Our team supports your designers with practical, buildable concepts.
Services include:
- Roadway geometric design
- Intersection improvement design
- ADA improvement planning
- Permitting and utility coordination
- Project management
- Construction management
- Access management strategies
- Multimodal roadway accommodations
- Integrated broadband, utility and civil design coordination
- Visualizations for concepts and phasing
OUTCOME
Concepts that translate cleanly into design and construction.
Traffic Management
Operational decisions determine traffic flow, safety outcomes and review success. Strong data upfront reduces delays and redesign.
Services include:
- Capacity improvement studies
- Traffic signal warrant studies
- Traffic signal design
- Signing and striping design
- Permitting and utility coordination
- Project management
- Construction management
- Intersection and corridor operations analysis
- Safety and crash pattern reviews
- Signal timing and traffic control evaluations
- Alternatives modeling
OUTCOME
Data that strengthens submissions and keeps design on track.
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)
Modern mobility relies on smart, connected infrastructure. We help agencies understand feasibility, define system needs and build designs that integrate cleanly with existing networks.
Our Lifecycle Approach
Your projects have many moving parts: agencies, utilities, broadband providers, civil design teams, environmental reviewers and the public. Most delays happen when these pieces aren’t aligned early.
ACG’s lifecycle framework reduces friction, protects your schedule and grounds decisions in data and community priorities.
- Early Understanding: Clarify goals, constraints and community considerations.
- Data Collection and Analysis: Build a complete picture: traffic, crashes, land use, utilities, GIS, environmental constraints.
- Options and Alternatives: See visual scenarios with tradeoffs to support confident decisions.
- Design Integration: Align planning with civil, broadband, utility and roadway design to avoid conflict.
- Construction Readiness: Anticipate staging, detours and access needs early.
- Communication and Support: Turn technical content into visuals and talking points that build trust.
- Long-Term Performance: Support condition reviews and maintenance planning for long-term value.
Who We Serve
- 543 Cities, towns and counties
