traffic impact studies one of their specialties. We are well versed in the

intricacies of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), as well as

numerous state and local traffic impact and congestion management criteria

and are adept at working on controversial and high-visibility projects.

Eldon Associates services include the full range of circulation planning, from

regional travel demand and policy studies, to specific plans, and

neighborhood and district plans. Settings have ranged from high intensity

urban mixed-use centers to undeveloped rural areas. Our staff have become

involved at the earliest stages of planning, working with land planners to

establish a framework for development, and can carry the effort through to

the determination of detailed specifications of required transportation

infrastructure.

Key tasks performed by Eldon Associates transportation planners include

analysis of land use and infrastructure alternatives, determination of the

impacts of development, and incorporating Traffic Demand Management

(TDM) strategies and transit into circulation plans. Our firm is exceptionally

skilled in working on sensitive projects with heavy community involvement

and inter-agency liaison requirements, and takes a creative approach to

devising transportation solutions.
