UTRS Civil and Environmental Engineering (UTRS CEE) is dedicated to creating vibrant, functional spaces that enhance community well-being. UTRS CEE understands that engineering is about more than just infrastructure—it’s about marshalling resources and creating spaces where communities can thrive.
Funding and Resource Acquisition
At UTRS CEE, we understand that securing funding is often a critical step in bringing engineering projects to life. We work diligently to identify funding opportunities and prepare compelling applications that highlight the value and impact of proposed projects. Our team assists clients with grant applications, leveraging our extensive experience and knowledge of various funding sources to maximize opportunities for financial support. For example, we successfully helped the Monroe Career and Technical Institute obtain a Local Share Account (LSA) Grant for their waterline extension project.
Our commitment to ensuring communities have the resources they need to thrive extends beyond grant writing. We provide strategic advice on resource allocation and help clients navigate complex funding landscapes. By combining our technical expertise with a thorough understanding of funding mechanisms, UTRS CEE empowers communities to turn their visions into reality, regardless of initial budget constraints.
Community Enhancement and Recreation
Our team of experienced professionals designs and plans parks and recreational facilities that serve as focal points for community gatherings and outdoor activities. By integrating green spaces, walking paths, and recreational facilities, we help foster a sense of community and improve the quality of life for residents. Our projects, such as the expansion of the Great Wolf Lodge and the Lehigh Valley Hospital-Muhlenberg campus, demonstrate our ability to create environments that promote health, relaxation, and social interaction.
From initial concept to final design, our approach involves collaborating with stakeholders to ensure the unique character of each area is reflected in the public spaces we develop, promoting social interaction and improving quality of life. Our expertise in stormwater management, ADA accessibility, and environmental stewardship ensures that every project is designed with both the user and the environment in mind. From playgrounds and sports fields to walking trails and picnic areas, UTRS CEE delivers comprehensive solutions that transform underutilized spaces into thriving community assets.
Roadway, Access, and Bridge Design
UTRS CEE provides specialized transportation engineering services that ensure the safe and efficient movement of people and goods. Our engineers design roads and bridges that meet the highest standards of safety, sustainability, and durability to support traffic flow and community growth. This includes bridge rehabilitation and replacement. UTRS CEE also advices on transportation access management, right of way services, and pedestrian and bicycle facilities.
Our team considers factors such as traffic flow, terrain, and existing infrastructure. We handle every phase of transportation infrastructure projects, from planning and design to construction oversight and management. Our expertise extends to road expansions, new construction, and rehabilitation projects, ensuring that both rural and urban communities benefit from well-designed, efficient transportation access, roadways and bridges.
