Transportation Planning
Transportation services and facilities support and fundamentally shape major activity centers, cities, towns, suburbs, and metropolitan regions.

Streets, trails, and open spaces frame the blocks within which structures are built.  Traditional, fine-grain, connected networks of arterial, collector, and local streets offer multiple route choices, disburse traffic over multiple streets, and provide more capacity than contemporary, sparse, collector-and-cul-de-sac networks. 

“Connectivity” makes a community more walkable and serviceable by public transportation.  “Complete streets” accommodate all modes (including cars, trucks, buses, bicyclists, and pedestrians) for all people (including the mobility-impaired).

Wells + Associates has successfully prepared short-, intermediate-, and long-range master plans for downtowns/central business districts, large land parcels, institutions, cities, towns, and sub-regions.  Our clients include private real estate developers, institutions, and public agencies.

Wells + Associates has prepared hundreds of transportation master plans, in more than 30 states, for private real estate developers, public agencies, and institutions.
