Transportation

Transportation planning involves numerous elements in order to provide for a harmonious development: adequate and convenient access, roadway systems capable of accommodating the traffic associated with the development uses, sufficient parking, proper signing, etc. Gilson Engineering is current in the governmental standards imposed for various mixed-use developments, access criteria, roadway requirements, and other factors. We provide traffic impact analysis, conceptual planning and functional parking designs, traffic control and signing, signal warrant analysis, and roadway and access design.

Gilson Engineering has also designed and managed construction of several roadway projects along the Wasatch Front. These projects have included the relocation of roads, acquisition of right-of-way for new roads, expansion and upgrading of existing roadways, and design of new roadways including curb, gutter, and sidewalk. Our transportation work includes contract documents, assistance in bidding, and construction management. We have performed feasibility studies and have prepared applications for funding. Traffic counts and level of service determinations are also included in these studies. Gilson Engineering uses the latest in computer technology to calculate roadway design and volumetric data. The Gilson Engineering staff has also worked with Vineyard City to design and manage the construction of a four lane overpass structure.

We are an experienced IQF firm working with UDOT and the Design Builder to assure that a quality project is delivered to the citizens of Utah. We have the local experience, relations and expertise to assure that your D/B project is documented and delivered successfully. We have the ability to address both small and large scale IQF for all aspects of D/B projects. Our experience with UDOT enables us to be proactive and address issues to resolve them in a mutually beneficial way.

Gilson Engineering was the first IQF for the Access Utah County (AUC) Region 3 Projects. Our role in the SR-77 Project has helped to develop the scope of IQF for the design-builder team, and helped develop realistic expectations for UDOT oversight.
