INFRASTRUCTURE
We believe in a team approach to assist municipalities in anticipating infrastructure needs necessitated by regional growth. This approach improves quality of life and economic growth now and into the future. Our experience covers each aspect of infrastructure: roadway design, pavement asset assessment, bicycle/ pedestrian path design, utility design, drainage, stormwater management, streetscape development, and master planning. The CPWG team can assist your team with bid analysis, permitting, public outreach programs, inspection services, ADA compliance, and construction management.
CPWG offers Infrastructure Solutions in the following areas:
TRANSPORTATION
Efficient improvements that increase community mobility.
As a community’s population increases, the demand on the existing transportation systems increases. New roadways, bridges, and drainage systems must be constructed. Existing systems must be maintained to alleviate congestion and maximize traffic flow. Aesthetic concerns must be kept in mind to increase community value.
Our team works with your team to improve livability by designing safer, more affordable roadways and surrounding systems. We have designed everything from complex highways to simple rural roads and engineered all of the signage and signals required. Our industry experience allows us to execute projects in an expedient manner while maintaining compliance with traffic control plans, right-of-way mapping, pavement markings, bicycle and pedestrian transit, multi-modal facilities, drainage regulations, and environmental permitting. Our goal in every project is to improve the community’s quality of life while minimizing life cycle costs.

PLANNING
Good projects start with good planning.
The CPWG team has the resources, interdisciplinary background, and most importantly – the vision – to take a project from its earliest thoughts and concepts all the way through to implementation. Our team of planners, engineers, and scientists are engaged in the planning process from the earliest phases through project implementation. Planning is often the “tip of the spear”, is typically a very public process, and is where the public is first exposed to project proposals. Our teams contain experts in developing project proposals and guiding them through public, stakeholder, and regulatory processes to help them move from concept to construction.
Our planning team has experience in taking projects from the regional planning phase and through the corridor planning phase. This includes corridor studies, safety improvements, bicycle and pedestrian plans, and NEPA and environmental documentation involving local, regional, state, and federal agencies. Our experience has ranged from small scale corridor operations improvements to multi-billion dollar roadway and fixed guideway transit projects. It also includes completion of NEPA documentation and approval by both the Federal Highway, the Federal Railroad Administration, and Transit Administrations.

UTILITY DESIGN
Utility design for a brighter future.
We understand the complexities of replacing utility infrastructure that is beyond its useful life expectancy in urban environments and our team has the expertise to control them. The CPWG Utilities Team sets the standard for undergrounding overhead utilities projects along coastal communities. These projects require intense coordination with all the stakeholders to ensure everyone’s interest are addressed during the design and permitting process. Our professionals work closely with each utility company, local, state and federal justification, as well as the public who ultimately benefits the most from these completed projects.
Our team knows utility infrastructure projects require public support and our staff have conducted hundreds of public meetings over hundreds of projects. These meetings range from meetings with a single property owner to hundreds of citizens filling a local city hall auditorium. The public information meetings are vital in on-boarding all the stake holders to support these types of projects because construction is inconvenient and disrupts the daily lives of those in the project area. Our Team provides expert construction administration and oversight to minimize disruptions to citizens and making sure the project stays on time and within the budget.

Our team includes experts in Stormwater Management. Stormwater is a leading cause of water pollution. It runs off solid surfaces and collects pollutants such as oil, pesticides, sediments, bacteria, and other chemicals, and then deposits them into our waterways. When stormwater is absorbed into the soil, it is filtered and ultimately replenishes aquifers or flows into streams and rivers.Our team uses a Green Infrastructure approach and associated technologies to infiltrate, evapotranspire, capture and reuse stormwater to maintain or restore natural hydrologies.
