Multi-Modal Transportation
Balancing the Needs of All Modes

Multi-modal planning requires more than technical expertise in transit operations, pedestrian design, streetcar implementation, innovative bicycle treatments, demand management or other specialties. It requires planners to apply their expertise collaboratively, as part of a larger team that may also include financial, policy, urban design and other experts.

Not only can we help cities choose the right transportation technology - streetcar, light rail, bus rapid transit, Transportation Systems Management (TSM) - but we can also help prioritize project funding through quantitative multi-modal performance measures that calculate how transportation investments support larger community goals.

From policy strategy at the regional level to corridor studies to local main street design, Nelson\Nygaard knows that a successful transportation network requires the integration of all modes, ensuring that motorists are not delayed by delivery operations, bicyclists can avoid streetcar tracks, and pedestrians can walk safely to the bus stop.
