About Josh Smith

I have 25 years of experience in traffic engineering and transportation planning. What I enjoy most about our profession is the human factors component that comes across in everything from interesting variabilities in how people interact with the built environment around them to mentoring younger staff or citizen stakeholders through a task or concept that\'s new to them. My experience includes:• Managing traffic study tasks, schedules, and budgets and communicating technical results with clients and stakeholders via oral presentations, graphics, plans, and written reports• Training junior staff and clients in use of software like Synchro, SimTraffic, Vissim, Sidra, and Torus.• Preparing planning studies for bicycle, pedestrian and parking facilities• Completing Safe Routes to School plans• Conducting roundabout feasibility studies• Preparing or providing third-party review for traffic impact analyses• Road diets for implementation of bicycle lane and cycle track improvements• Traffic control, signal, signing, and pavement marking plans• Traffic engineering support for large-scale federal and military site planning• Work zone Transportation Management Plans• Traffic studies for streetscape-related public involvement projects• Developing spreadsheet software for automating routine traffic analysis tasks
