State Highway 55 is an important freight and commuter route in Canyon County that provides access to orchards, vineyards, farms, and other agribusiness in the area. When the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) set out to modernize the transportation system between Pear Lane and Middleton Road in Nampa, Horrocks was selected to complete surveys and analyses, develop preliminary designs, and create plans to accommodate a high volume of traffic. The goals of this project included:

​

  • Increasing mobility along approximately 10 miles between Pear Lane and Middleton Road

  • Improving economic growth and opportunities in the region by providing easier access to agricultural producers and enterprises

  • Developing a roadway plan and design modifications that significantly reduce the impacts to environmental and cultural resources in the area

  • Modify the priority transportation corridor to meet current safety and mobility standards

  • Create a design and roadway plan that harmonizes freight and commuter traffic for added user safety

Horrocks provided public involvement, design, and construction management services for a new protected bicycle lane and the nation’s first utilized protected bicycle intersection, located in downtown Salt Lake City. This project made improvements to the streetscape and created a first-of-its-kind protected intersection that improved safety for pedestrians and bicyclists and implemented a Complete Street design, local public art, and public parking strategies. The project offered a wide range of changes and improvements to the area, including:

​

  • Updating traffic signals to include bicycle buttons and bicycle signal indications 

  • Converting a 5-lane roadway to a 3-lane for enhanced user experience and safety

  • Improving safety for pedestrians through separate crosswalks

  • Utilizing a Dutch-inspired intersection design that physically separates the bicycle lane from the roadway

​

  • Collecting and analyzing traffic data to help shape the study and develop the best transportation solution for the community

  • Providing in-house demand modeling to determine the future roadway conditions and develop a realistic implementation plan

  • Evaluating current public facilities and determining annual maintenance schedules best suited to serve existing and new developments

  • Engaging the public and increasing collaboration between project teams through customized public engagement plans
