Transportation Planning
Transportation Planning is a multidisciplinary approach to understanding existing conditions, identifying current and future needs, and developing infrastructure and policy recommendations that support a community's vision. An effective transportation plan is grounded in data, yields implementable solutions, and reflects the priorities of all community members.
The Isthmus Planning team specializes in:
- multimodal project development
- multimodal needs identification and prioritization
- geospatial analysis and data analytics
Our collaborative approach emphasizes mode integration, inclusive and meaningful public engagement, and consent building with agencies and community members. Our planning team partners with our clients to deliver implementable plans across Minnesota that integrate community development, planning, engineering, construction, operations, and maintenance.
