Designing the Pathways of Opportunity.
The efficient movement of people and goods from one destination to the next is essential to the vitality of a community and its citizens. That’s where transportation design comes in. Our engineers strive to build strong partnerships by designing transportation infrastructure that shapes our communities and serves our citizens.
From multi-lane interstates to pedestrian facilities, our transportation design team delivers extraordinary results on transportation engineering projects. Our professional staff has a wealth of experience in project development and engineering design, ensuring total project delivery for various clients. We have the capacity to provide every design discipline that goes into transportation projects, including roadway design, hydrologic analysis and hydraulic design, traffic management, and utility engineering.
Our engineers are all familiar with construction, inspections, contract administration, and project certification, which gives us a unique design perspective. We integrate constructability, serviceability, and value engineering into every project we are a part of. Our vast resources allow us to allocate the right personnel with the right expertise to the project that needs them most, every time. Our flexibility and responsiveness, learned from many years of experience working in the public sector, ensures successful, thorough, and exceptional project delivery to our clients.

Featured Project
R-2582A US 158 Improvements
Summit developed and led Engineering for Plans for the widening and realignment of US 158 in Northampton County. This was an 8.5-mile project with 21% trucks, including interchanges with I-95 and US 301. The design consisted of widening the two and three-lane sections of the roadway to a four-lane divided freeway, typically with a total of four roundabouts on the project. Some sections were designed as Controlled Access, while others had Limited Access with a Superstreet design. Summit was responsible for Roadway Design, Traffic Management, and Erosion Control plans for the project. After the project, Let Summit has continued to assist NCDOT with Design and Construction revisions for all design disciplines.
