Developing a long-term plan for bicycle, pedestrian or trail improvements requires a big-picture approach and a focus on strategic implementation. To cover every element, constituency, contingency and effect, Alta creates master plans that provide vision and direction.

Including multiple modes of transportation in one corridor is a logistical challenge. We make the process more efficient by delivering detailed analyses that consider all the issues.

When it comes to transportation and recreation projects, there’s no shortage of vision. Sorting through potential concepts to determine what can become reality is one of Alta’s specialized skills..

Non-motorized transportation and recreation projects impact far more than just their users. We have the scientific expertise and research background to determine a project’s true effect on nature.

Success for any project, no matter its size, is dependent on good design. Alta has designed hundreds of successful bicycle, pedestrian and trail projects—we know what works.

Piecing together the funding to make a project happen can be like navigating a labyrinth. We’ve dealt with every funding configuration imaginable—let us lead you through.

Alta is ready to help get kids back on the path of providing their own transportation to school, offering them safety and responsibility, and their parents peace of mind. 

Alta utilizes a working knowledge of on-the-ground conditions in combination with detailed analysis to understand and develop potential solutions to help communities become more livable, accessible and friendly for pedestrians and bicycles.

For projects with a broad scope, Alta brings together all the elements into a comprehensive program that covers the details and provides the long view, too.

If you need research data before embarking on a project, we have helpful information—or we can get it. Alta is at the forefront of research on innovative recreation and non-motorized transportation programs, projects and applications.
