Color-Line.png

SGA works with transit districts and their partners throughout the United States to lead the development of new rail and passenger rail projects. 

 

Transit (Bus, LRT, Streetcar) and intercity and commuter rail project work includes: 

  • New Starts/Small Starts and FRA grant applications;

  • Feasibility and multimodal integration studies;

  • NEPA;

  • plan adoption;

  • transit asset management systems; and

  • corridor and system studies, economic and financial analyses, and design components.

 

Nearly all of SGA transit development work involves detailed alternatives analysis comparing technologies, the costs and benefits of different infrastructure, services, modes, etc., and program changes to support agency management and development of systems.

 

Clients include TriMet, SMART, Tri-Rail, NYCTA, UTA, NJT, MARTA, cities of Portland, Atlanta, Miami, Philadelphia, and the states of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Missouri, Hawaii, and Florida.
