This multiple award winning project includes a hybrid roundabout and a tear-drop shaped roundabout located at the Holman Highway 68 and Highway 1 intersection, which is the main entrance to the Pebble Beach Resort. This project relieved congestion, improved emergency response times and enhanced safety at this critical intersection on the Monterey Peninsula. This innovative roundabout solution saved hundreds of trees and millions of dollars over the traditional signalized alternative.

The Twin Cites Road/State Route 104 at State Route 99 Interchange modification represents a new paradigm in the approach to transportation planning and design of interchanges. This aging interchange was brought into the 21st Century for a fraction of the cost of a typical freeway interchange ($9 million vs $60 million) by Utilizing the “Wide Node, Narrow Road” aspect of roundabouts. Add to this the calming effect on traffic, incorporation of landscaping and artwork, and pedestrian connectivity… Show more

The Twin Cites Road/State Route 104 at State Route 99 Interchange modification represents a new paradigm in the approach to transportation planning and design of interchanges. This aging interchange was brought into the 21st Century for a fraction of the cost of a typical freeway interchange ($9 million vs $60 million) by Utilizing the “Wide Node, Narrow Road” aspect of roundabouts. Add to this the calming effect on traffic, incorporation of landscaping and artwork, and pedestrian connectivity – all with minimal impact to the existing community, and you get a project that has helped to create a sense of place that has solidified this area as the northern entrance to the City of Galt.

This project features three roundabouts at the entrance to downtown Napa. The roundabouts are located at the intersections of First St and the northbound ramps for SR 29, First St at California Blvd, and Second St at California Blvd. The project is reversing the oneway couplet of First and Second Streets between California Blvd and Jefferson St. First St will head into downtown and Second St will head out of downtown. These changes will improve existing operations and accommodate future growth.… Show more

An award winning multi-use trail project that consisted of two segments of paved trail along old railroad right of way and adjacent to Hangtown Creek. As Project Manager, Lindsey successfully delivered this project through preliminary engineering, environmental clearance, final design and construction support services. These two trail segments are located in Placerville, Ca and are part of the larger El Dorado Trail system.

This Active Transportation project is converting three car-centric roadway segments in the La Quinta Village into complete streets corridors through a road diet. The project is modifying five signalized or stop controlled intersections into roundabouts and reducing the roadways from a four to a two lane section. The extra lanes are being converted into buffered bicycle/golf cart lanes with some on street parking on two of the three corridors. Along all three corridors the project is installing… Show more

This Active Transportation project is converting three car-centric roadway segments in the La Quinta Village into complete streets corridors through a road diet. The project is modifying five signalized or stop controlled intersections into roundabouts and reducing the roadways from a four to a two lane section. The extra lanes are being converted into buffered bicycle/golf cart lanes with some on street parking on two of the three corridors. Along all three corridors the project is installing water quality features with bioretention facilities and retention basins. The project is also proving transit pullouts. Show less

This project converted a stop controlled intersection into a single lane roundabout to improve safety and reduce the number and severity of collisions. It also serves as the entrance to the City of Plymouth and to the Shenandoah Wine Region.
