OVERVIEW

What We Do

CDR specializes in aesthetic treatments and designs for bridges, highways and pedestrian facilities. For each highway or urban environment project or master plan, we develop context-sensitive design options that are appropriate for the specific project. As an essential part of our process, we produce accurate drive-throughs, 3D computer modeling, specifications, plan sheets and narratives that show the stakeholders what the project will look like once constructed.

We normally serve as a liaison between departments of transportation, engineers of record, architects, developers, as well as the constituents and involved citizens to help understand and unite everyone’s needs and interests. We are known for seamless collaboration with all parties and final context sensitive solutions that are celebrated by the project team and the entire community.

OUR SERVICES

MASTER PLANNING

CDR creates visionary Master Plans for highway infrastructure and designs urban development projects in the United States and Canada.

CONTEXT SENSITIVE SOLUTIONS

Each project’s design is site-specific, inspired by the people, the environment, and the surrounding community by whom it will be viewed, used and appreciated.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

At CDR, we know the value of being connected with the community, and context sensitive solutions work best when the public is involved from the start.
