Rail and Transit Operations

Route Planning

We develop optimized transit and rail route plans that enhance accessibility and service reliability for passengers. Our team considers factors such as demand, connectivity, and efficiency to design routes that maximize coverage and minimize travel time. These plans help reduce congestion and improve overall service quality.

Autonomous Vehicles

Our services include integrating autonomous vehicles into existing transit systems, focusing on safety and operational efficiency. We design infrastructure that supports autonomous technology, including necessary communication and control systems. This ensures a seamless and safe transition to more automated and efficient transit operations.

Guided Tracks

We design guided track systems that support various rail applications, including light rail and monorails, ensuring precise vehicle movement. Our solutions focus on enhancing safety and ride quality while minimizing maintenance requirements. These systems enable reliable and efficient rail services in both urban and intercity settings.

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)

We develop Bus Rapid Transit solutions that incorporate dedicated lanes, transit signal priority, and station design to improve bus service speed and reliability. Our BRT plans prioritize high-capacity corridors to reduce congestion and enhance public transit usage. This approach provides a cost-effective alternative to rail transit with similar benefits.

Transit Signal Priority

We implement transit signal priority systems that give buses and other transit vehicles priority at traffic signals, reducing delays. Our solutions integrate with existing traffic management systems for seamless operation. This enhances the efficiency of public transit services by minimizing travel time and improving schedule adherence.

Bus on Shoulder

We design bus-on-shoulder systems that allow buses to use highway shoulders during peak congestion periods. Our designs ensure that these lanes meet safety standards and are suitable for heavy vehicles. This approach provides a cost-effective way to improve transit reliability without requiring extensive road widening.

Dedicated Bus Lanes

We provide design and planning services for dedicated bus lanes that separate transit traffic from general traffic, reducing delays and improving service reliability. Our solutions focus on optimizing lane placement and managing conflicts at intersections. Dedicated bus lanes contribute to faster and more dependable public transit.

High-Speed Rail Design

Our team designs high-speed rail systems that offer fast, efficient, and safe intercity travel options. We consider factors such as track alignment, station location, and integration with existing networks to optimize performance. These systems enhance regional connectivity and reduce reliance on air and highway travel.

Communication Infrastructure Design

We design communication networks to support rail and transit operations, ensuring reliable data transmission for safety and control systems. Our solutions include fiber optic networks, radio communication, and wireless systems tailored to transit needs. This infrastructure enables real-time monitoring and coordination of transit services.

Rail Signal Design

Our rail signal design services ensure safe and efficient train movements by implementing advanced signaling systems. We incorporate the latest technology to optimize train schedules and improve safety. Our designs comply with industry standards and support various types of rail operations.

Highway/Rail At-Grade Crossings Design

We enhance the safety and functionality of highway/rail at-grade crossings by designing appropriate warning systems, barriers, and signage. Our solutions reduce the risk of collisions and improve crossing visibility for both road users and train operators. These designs comply with safety regulations and industry best practices.

Rail Safety Design

We provide rail safety design services that include hazard analysis, emergency response planning, and safety system implementation. Our designs prioritize the protection of passengers, staff, and the public by addressing potential safety risks. This comprehensive approach ensures compliance with rail safety standards and promotes a safer rail environment.

Rail-Road Crossing Safety

We enhance the safety of rail-road crossings through the design of advanced warning systems and grade separation solutions. Our services include risk assessments to identify hazards and implement measures that minimize accident risks. These solutions help ensure the safe coexistence of rail and roadway traffic.

Positive Train Control (PTC) Signal

We implement Positive Train Control systems to prevent train collisions, derailments, and other incidents caused by human error. Our services cover PTC system design, installation, and integration with existing rail networks. This technology enhances safety and efficiency across rail operations by automating key safety functions.
