Roadways & Streets
Designing Streets That Balance Mobility and Livability
Merrick works with cities and counties to design roadways and streets that serve both transportation and community goals. Our transportation design expertise is complemented by traffic and transportation planning services, allowing us to support projects from early planning through final design. By pairing traffic analysis and planning with roadway design, we help clients make informed decisions about corridor needs and intersection treatments within constrained rights-of-way, dense utilities, and established neighborhoods, while delivering meaningful improvements.
Stakeholder and community engagement are integrated early in the design process. By listening to priorities and incorporating feedback, Merrick creates street designs that support mobility while enhancing the character and functionality of the surrounding area.
Our roadway designs reflect a multimodal mindset. We accommodate pedestrians, cyclists, transit users, and drivers through solutions that improve safety, access, and connectivity. There is no single answer for every street, and Merrick tailors each design to the context, values, and long-term vision of the community it serves.
