TPD was founded in Oaks, PA in 1989 by our current President, Kevin Johnson, PE. The firm, which was originally comprised of six employees, was founded primarily as a traffic engineering firm with highway design support capabilities. Within a few years, the firm grew significantly, requiring a relocation of the corporate headquarters to our current location in Pottstown, PA. During this time period, the firm was able to expand the areas in which we provided service to include bridge design and environmental permitting while at the same time strengthening our core service areas of traffic engineering and highway design. The firm was able to further expand our capabilities a few years later with the addition of bridge inspection, construction management and construction inspection. In addition to our expansion of services, the firm also expanded geographically, adding additional offices to allow us to better serve our growing client base.

Today, we pride ourselves on being a client-focused, team-oriented firm which operates as “One Company with Multiple Locations”. TPD’s strategically-located network of offices, progressive management structure, continuous investment in technology, and priority on individual accountability enable the firm to provide quality sustainable service, responsiveness, and local knowledge for the benefit of clients and teaming partners.

Employee Testimonials

For me, the work/life balance philosophy has been a game changer. TPD has held this belief since the start of the company, not as a result of Covid. The flexibility to be involved in things outside of work while still producing a quality product and maintaining external and internal client communications has always been key.

I look forward to going to work every day. We are surrounded by incredible people and our work environment allows us to be comfortable and productive. TPD always asks if there is anything they could do to make it even better.

The company is very welcoming to all and want to help all backgrounds achieve their best potential both inside and outside of work.

TPD listens to employees; makes organizational changes to improve the company and create opportunities for staff; trusts employees and give employees flexibility to create their own work/life balance.

TPD is a family first company, they will go out of their way to accommodate any out of work needs and strives to make coworkers feel like family.

Amazingly progressive view of the importance of work/life balance. You are allowed to prioritize your work, not left with ‘scraps’ of time to ‘fit in’ to your outside life.

TPD understands that in order to make our clients happy, our staff must be happy. TPD has a great amount of respect for its employees and provides many opportunities.

Encourages learning at the intern/entry level, provides a friendly and calm atmosphere that promotes work-life balance.

This is the most openly communicating and family friendly company I’ve ever worked for. I feel that I am truly part of a strong team here.

They are extremely transparent with their policies and decisions. They have great benefits and they hire good people that help create a fun and stress free work environment. They do excellent work and have a great reputation in the industry. They are growing smartly. They treat employees very well!
