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.

From Rails-with-Trails to on-street bikeways, Main Street Design, and off-street greenways, Alta analyzes the full range of issues for a wide variety of corridors. 

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.

One of Alta's core values is respect for the environment and the context in which our projects are developed.  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, park, greenway, 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 utililzes 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 safe. 

If you build it, will they come? Alta's Programs Team specializes in encouraging and educating communities on how to integrate alternative transportation in their lives.  Services range from grant writing assistance to personal travel encouragement.
