<br />5 small area plans, and multiple environmental processes and documentation. Angie also designs and leads public involvement processes for complex, multijurisdictional planning studies. She is formally trained in the SDIC and excels at finding solutions that can be supported by a diverse group of stakeholders.
<br />ANGIE'S PROJECT EXPERIENCE:
<br />Arboretum Area Transportation Plan, Carver County—Angie served as the
<br />deputy project manager leading project stakeholders in understanding the
<br />purpose and need of the project, identifying the problems, goals, and range
<br />of solutions as well as why the recommended vision was proposed.
<br />TH 41 and CSAH 61 Downtown Improvements, City of Chaska, Carver
<br />County, and MnDOT—Angie led the corridor study phase of this controversial
<br />study/preliminary design effort. She led all planning elements (existing
<br />conditions, purpose and need framework, goals and objectives, alternatives
<br />evaluation, and study report) and public involvement. This required two
<br />years of collaboration, finding flexibility among state and local partners/
<br />stakeholders, and building trust through the process to find common goals
<br />and compromise.
<br />Bob Rogers, AICP • LEAD: Public and Agency Involvement; Final Report and Project Closeout
<br />Bob, a long-time Hugo resident, will develop a robust and focused public and agency engagement plan. He will also prepare the final report and executive summary. Bob is a senior planner who began his career in 1995. He is experienced in transportation, land use, and environmental planning, including a strong portfolio of complex transportation projects and deep history leading the completion of alternatives development/evaluation for state and federal level environmental review and documentation. Over the course of Bob’s career, he has served as project manager and/or task leader for more than 50 projects involving preliminary design, environmental documentation, and land use planning. Having worked on projects through all stages of development, Bob understands the critical nature of open and collaborative decision making. He works closely with local, state, and federal agencies and community stakeholders to develop multimodal transportation solutions in a variety of built and natural environments. Bob has also been actively involved with state and federal transportation policy and funding through grant writing services.
<br />BOB'S PROJECT EXPERIENCE:
<br />Highway 36 Corridor Study and Access Management Plan, MnDOT Metro
<br />and Washington County—This study focused on developing a corridor plan
<br />for TH 36 between I-694 and TH 120. The study involved a multijurisdictional
<br />study team with federal, state, county, and city representatives. Bob
<br />served as the lead transportation planner responsible for assessment of
<br />existing conditions, development of the study goals and purpose and need
<br />statement, alternatives evaluation/screening, and public engagement. The
<br />TH 36 corridor study resulted in recommendations and conceptual designs
<br />for grade separated interchanges at CSAH 35 (Hadley Avenue), along with a
<br />Gateway Trail underpass, and at TH 120 (Century Avenue).
<br />Highway 12 (Willmar) Corridor Vision Plan, MnDOT District 7—This
<br />study identified a long-range corridor vision with conceptual improvements
<br />needed to support Willmar's land use plans for new development as well as
<br />redevelopment through the community. Bob served as the project manager
<br />and led all public/agency engagement efforts.
<br />Ross Tillman, PE • LEAD: Transportation Mode Data Collection; Corridor Management Concepts, Feasibility Review, and Recommendations
<br />Ross will lead all traffic performance data collection and modeling efforts. He will also identify corridor management concepts and design elements for priority projects. Ross is a principal transportation engineer with Bolton & Menk who began his career in 2010 and has since gained experience across an array of transportation engineering disciplines. While his expertise is rooted in traffic engineering, Ross’s progressive project experience includes planning, preliminary and final design, corridor studies, traffic analyses, intersection control evaluations, project funding, and traffic signal coordination and timing. He understands that effective communication with all stakeholders is imperative to a successful project and enjoys interacting with members of the public to discuss transportation issues.
<br />ROSS'S PROJECT EXPERIENCE:
<br />Arboretum Area Transportation Plan, Carver County—This subarea study
<br />focused on identifying a vision for Highway 5 and the surrounding county
<br />highways in the Cities of Chaska, Chanhassen, and Victoria. Ross was
<br />responsible for traffic modeling and concept design for 12 miles of corridors,
<br />including expansion, signalizing intersections, adding roundabouts, 2- to
<br />3-lane conversions, and building alternative intersections. The complex
<br />project included numerous subareas on various timelines for technical
<br />development based on a tiered public engagement approach. Given the
<br />large study area, many data sources were required to complete the analysis
<br />and generate recommendations. This included origin-destination data
<br />from StreetLight to understand travel patterns and how improvements to
<br />the network could reroute traffic as well as visitor/ticketing data from the
<br />Minnesota Landscape Arboretum to understand how their operation impacts
<br />the adjacent roadways. Typical data sources such as traffic volumes and
<br />crash data were also collected.
<br />CSAH 12 (Stillwater Road/75th Street), Washington County—Ross led
<br />a corridor study to determine the CSAH 12 corridor vision through the
<br />Cities of Mahtomedi, Willernie, and Grant. The project culminated with a
<br />locally accepted vision. He also led the final design delivery for Phase I
<br />improvements identified in the study.
<br />Ashley Hudson, AICP • LEAD: Corridor Inventory, Context, and Community Priorities; Jurisdictional Transfer Plan
<br />Ashley will establish the corridor background and outline a process to change the corridor’s jurisdiction. Since beginning her career in 2011, Ashley has developed a range of skills as a transportation planner. She fills multiple roles on an
