Client Projects

A few of our recent favorites

California Street Improvements

City of Everett, WA

Transpo designed a bike and pedestrian corridor along California Street that connects downtown Everett, WA with the US 2 trail. The safety-focused improvements includes infill and new location sidewalk, raised cycle track, shared use path, and improved crossing designs that are inclusive of a wide range of users, but accommodate existing land use, parking and vehicle traffic.

S Wenatchee Ave Bicycle Connectivity

Chelan-Douglas
Transportation Council

Transpo evaluated alternatives for low-stress bicycle improvements on S Wenatchee Avenue and connecting corridors in South Wenatchee. The scope of the study included bilingual public engagement, identification of feasible alternatives, selection criteria and a preferred alternative. The recommended design included a mix of buffered bike lanes, protected cycle tracks and off-street connections.

Parkview Safe Routes to School

City of Bellingham, WA

Transpo developed plans, specifications and an estimate, implementing recommendations of a corridor planning study Transpo conducted prior to the City obtaining federal Safe Routes to School funding for the project. The design includes new location and infill sidewalks, bike lanes, roundabout conversion of a signal, curb ramps, raised and RRFB crossings, roadway realignment and illumination.
