Transportation Engineering

   "...is the science of safe and efficient movement of people and goods and is a sub-discipline of civil engineering.  The design aspects of transportation engineering include the sizing of transportation facilities (how many lanes or how much capacity the facility has), designing the geometry (vertical and horizontal alignment) of the facility, engineering how the facility fits into existing conditions, determining the materials and thickness used in the facility’s construction and design of appropriate controls and information to aid in the efficient operation of the facility."

At Level 5 Engineering, our professional and technical staff has been providing transportation engineering services for both the public and private sectors for over 60 years combined.  From two-lane county roads to multi-lane highways, and bridges up to 1240’ in length, Level 5 staff members are skilled at solving our clients’ transportation issues in a cost-effective manner.  We approach the challenges of our work with energy, expertise and a commitment to excellence.  

Level 5’s transportation department has developed a core competency in roadway design in urban settings that require careful attention to details to ensure that the design fits within the project’s proposed footprint with minimal disruption to adjacent land owners.  Our core bridge design competency is in cost and schedule efficient design for the rehabilitation of existing bridges, allowing our clients to maximize their return on infrastructure investments.  While these competencies are our core, we are very experienced in new construction projects and major reconstructions of transportation facilities from conception through construction.
