The firm provided all aspects of traffic engineering, transportation planning, and roadway design. This included horizontal and vertical geometry, layout of a modern roundabout, drainage analysis and design, detailed grading, signing and pavement markings, as well as traffic signal design.
The Bridgeport Hospital Park Ave. Campus is a treatment facility, owned and operated by the Yale-New Haven Health network, which provides regional care for patients. The new campus is located at a previously existing medical office complex at 5520 Park Ave. in Trumbull and Bridgeport. The original complex consisted of 80,000 s/f of land use development, while the new one includes an additional 120,000 s/f, and a 600-space parking garage.
