SERVICE OVERVIEW
Our communities are constantly evolving, with shifting demographics, ongoing development, and increasing traffic. To address these opportunities and challenges, TPD works closely with local municipal clients and partners to provide transportation and pedestrian/bicycle mobility elements for Comprehensive Land Use Plans, which serve as blueprints for fostering healthier, more equitable, and interconnected communities. Transportation has the power to unlock prosperity, health, and freedom but it can also create disadvantages, harm, and divisions. Through a strategic approach that incorporates land use, TPD aims to identify opportunities for communities to improve connectivity, accessibility, and mobility for people of all ages and abilities. By aligning transportation planning with broader land use goals, we strive to create systems that facilitate inclusivity and enhance quality of life for everyone.




REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS
Media Borough Traffic Calming Plan
Media Borough, Delaware County, PA
TPD completed a borough-wide Traffic Calming Plan for Media Borough. The Team employed several innovative engagement tactics to gather public input in addition to the traditional Public Meeting approach. Detailed conceptual drawings were provided as part of the plan for several corridors throughout Media in addition to a radical redesign of Baltimore Avenue, and the development of a neighborhood greenway along Jefferson Street. These detailed drawings are complimented by a wide array of education, encouragement and enforcement strategies, as well as appropriate traffic calming techniques to apply throughout the neighborhood streets of the Borough. Several pop-up projects to temporarily demonstrate the effectiveness of traffic calming devices and help increase public awareness were identified, as well as areas for the Borough to engage residents through street art and neighborhood programs. In addition, a comprehensive review of Borough code was completed identifying areas that could be strengthened or revised to provide for better future transportation improvements.
