Pedestrians / Bicyclists
Pedestrian and bicycle facilities are vital elements in the
overall success of any transportation system and require careful
consideration during the planning and design process. Our
team works closely with all project stakeholders to provide our
clients with innovative and practical solutions to design
issues.
JMT has a long history of delivering successful projects to our
clients at both the planning level of development and the
engineered and built final product. We have completed
numerous studies and designs in many counties and
states. These tasks have varied in scale and setting from
rural corridors to the urbanized environment of cities. JMT
is a Silver Partner of the National Complete Streets Coalition
(NCSC) and implements the ideas of NCSC in all of our work.
JMT has utilized Bicycle Level of Comfort (BLOC) calculations for
bicycle facility design and has Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) experts on staff to provide guidance on the latest policy
issues within our state and local governments. JMT can
provide a full range of services from planning studies, development
of construction documents and post construction
services. JMT's Planning department offers the
