Transportation Transportation done right means safe and efficient movement of people and goods between locations. We aim to enhance our nation’s transportation infrastructure, ensuring goods are shipped safely, communities are strengthened, and the economy is enhanced. Our transportation specialists plan, design and help maintain and construct these most valued assets—including roads, bridges, railways, waterways, and multi-modal facilities—for public and private transportation owners, agencies and authorities. Whether an initiative involves a cost-effective rehabilitation or an innovatively funded major capital improvement, we provide the experience, creativity and expertise to improve mobility and safety.

Traffic and ITS Services Congestion has grown substantially in our nation’s metropolitan areas over the past 20 years. During this time period, the travel time reliability of our infrastructure has become more volatile and less consistent. Each and every day, key considerations that contribute to the quality of life for millions of Americans are compromised or diminished as a function of traffic congestion, delays, or safety concerns.

CHA’s traffic team functions as a “firm within a firm,” providing planning, analysis, modeling and design development for all types of transportation, aviation, and municipal client initiatives. Our team of traffic engineers, transportation planners, and technical staff provides a comprehensive breadth of knowledge and experience in all facets of modal mobility, accessibility, safety, technology, and deployment. From roadside sign inventories and safety audits to the latest Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) innovations and applications, our professionals are adept at delivering the entire design development and implementation process.

Building from extensive experience in the public and private sectors, our Traffic and ITS group has successfully completed hundreds of traffic system management & operations (TSM&O) projects, traffic signal designs, access management studies, long-range planning studies and traffic impact studies. CHA’s traffic engineers design traditional and innovative intersections and are qualified to provide traffic signal timing on a variety of signal software and cabinet platforms, from isolated intersections to large coordinated systems. Our team is also experienced in the design and application of Advanced Transportation Management Systems (ATMS).

Land Development A well-executed project requires cooperation among the developer, regulatory agencies, local review boards, consultants, and the community. Careful consideration must be given to impacts on traffic, stormwater drainage, water and sanitary services, and the environment. With all those moving parts, a developer needs one resource that can plan a project tactically, design it cohesively, permit it seamlessly, and construct it successfully. We have the permitting, engineering and construction experience to expedite project approvals and deliver projects on time and on budget.

Subsurface Utility Engineering Overview D

Quality Level D (QL-D): Information obtained from the record drawings of the known utility providers in the area.

C

Quality Level C (QL-C): Information derived using conventional or GPS survey techniques to accurately locate and tie to project-specific control, surface features that indicate the presence of underground utilities.

B

Quality Level B (QL-B): Information obtained with geophysical prospecting equipment to designate the horizontal location of underground utilities.

A variety of electromagnetic, radio frequency, sonic wave, and groundpenetrating radar (GPR) equipment is used.

A

Quality Level A (QL-A): Determines the accurate horizontal and vertical location of a utility by exposing the buried utility in areas where conflicts between the utility and the design. Uses a non-destructive vacuum excavation method to expose the utility.
