Streets
Roadway and street infrastructure is about providing safe, accessible routes that support daily lives and communities. We help cities, counties and regional agencies develop roadway systems that support current demands and future growth.
The Roadways That Connect Us
Major roadways, streets and urban corridors are essential for daily mobility, economic activity and local and regional connectivity. But evolving demands, aging infrastructure and limited budgets challenge public agencies to think holistically about how roadway networks serve everyone.
We support our clients in planning and designing complete streets that prioritize all users, including drivers, pedestrians, cyclists and transit users. Our work emphasizes accessibility, safety and long-term value while aligning with local character and community needs.
How We Deliver
Every street and roadway project must balance function, form and funding. Our integrated team brings together engineers, planners, designers and construction professionals to develop tailored solutions for arterial roads, neighborhood streetscapes, multimodal corridors and highway networks.
We consider a range of technical and community factors, including Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) needs, bike and pedestrian accommodations, stormwater management, and traffic control. Our team addresses next-generation mobility, designing for electric vehicle integration, connected infrastructure and advanced traffic signal systems. With in-house specialists in environmental services, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation and traffic operations, our team also addresses the full scope of challenges facing local transportation networks.
The Burns & McDonnell Advantage
We do more than engineer and construct streets and highways. We support comprehensive rural and urban mobility, from city centers to access roads.
Beyond technical execution, we support clients through every phase of project delivery — from early planning and funding strategy to final construction and closeout. Whether pursuing design-bid-build or alternative delivery, our team adapts to the method that fits the project's goals, complexity and available resources.
Our design-build and engineer-procure-construct (EPC) capabilities help meet cost, schedule and quality expectations while maintaining alignment with agency priorities. Through close coordination with stakeholders, we provide a clear, structured approach that drives progress, supports funding compliance and delivers value across the full life cycle of transportation infrastructure.
