Services

Joe conducts half, full and multi-day technical trainings for a variety of local, state, federal and private entities on the subjects on bicycle, pedestrian, and complete streets facility design. Trainings can focus on any topic related to roadway design and be tailored based on the desired goals and outcomes. Joe has also developed dozens of customized design activities and problems for participants to solve to reinforce the instructional material. Joe’s trainings are story driven through personal experience, heavily visual in nature and lean heavily on evidence-based experience referencing recent studies, research and current policy. 

As part of your project team, Joe can provide valuable services helping to make your project successful, safe and something the community can be proud of. Areas of focus may include:

• Avoiding common design mistakes

• Designing for all ages and abilities

• Applying innovative pedestrian and bicycle design features

• Intersection design strategies for people walking and bicycling

• Getting to “Yes” for the above with internal and external project partners

With over 23 years of active transportation facility design in cities around North America and deep involvement in creating design guidance for FHWA, NACTO, State and Local governments, there is not much that Joe hasn’t seen in a project. Joe has reviewed hundreds of projects and provided design review during all phases of project development. Review may include:

• Quality Assurance/Control

• Adherence to existing design standards and best practices

• Suggestions for improvement for usability, comfort and/or safety

• Identification of similar projects with different approaches for consideration
