Highways
Planning and Designing Highways for a Changing Transportation Landscape
Merrick supports transportation agencies through planning, engineering, and design services that improve safety, mobility, and system performance. Our teams work closely with federal, state, and local DOTs to deliver projects that range from early planning and environmental studies to complex interchange and corridor designs.
A defining strength is Merrick’s pre-project focus. By leading transportation planning, traffic studies, and environmental compliance efforts, we help agencies balance traffic efficiency, safety, and environmental considerations before design decisions are locked in. This foundation enables clearer project direction and more effective delivery.
As vehicle technology advances, highways must evolve. Merrick helps agencies address the growing gap between aging infrastructure and connected, autonomous, and electric vehicles. Through smart technology integration and data-driven analysis, we support modernization efforts that prepare highway systems for future demands.
