    About Alta
    Alta Planning + Design is a sustainable transportation company dedicated to creating active, healthy communities through planning, landscape architecture, engineering, and

    education/encouragement

    programs.

    Alta was founded in 1996 when communities were calling for safer streets for people walking and bicycling as the non-motorized transportation movement developed into a profession in the United States.

    We pioneered the field of active transportation, evolving our planning and design work into a visionary global practice that empowers people to live active, healthy lives and gets them to where they need to go.


    Our core values and work bring about positive change by creating places that are geared toward moving people rather than cars, connecting community members to daily needs and human experience, and empowering every person to live an active healthy life.

    As a global leader in mobility innovation for over 26 years, we are dedicated to connecting people to places by working across disciplines and scale to address social justice, safety, and environmental resilience.

    Day to Day You will be a part of a multidisciplinary team responsible for leading and delivering a wide range of multimodal projects ranging from quick-build intersections, complex bikeway design, complete streets, and trails.

    You will be responsible for a variety of design tasks including geometric layout, grading, signing and striping, storm drainage, green infrastructure, traffic control plans, construction staging, details, and engineer's estimates for large- and small-scale bicycle and pedestrian improvement projects, complete streets, and multimodal projects.

    You will progressively develop abilities in solving complex transportation problems with creative solutions.


    From time to time, you may participate in and lead some site visits to project sites to investigate existing conditions and observe construction activities.


    You will lead some project tasks and assist in creating project documents to prepare a complete, bid-ready Plans, Specification, and Estimate package.

    You may be designated as the project design lead or support a project design lead and/or project manager in client coordination, sub-consultant coordination, and document review.

    You will participate in and be encouraged to lead some project coordination meetings with clients (both internal and external).


    Some support may be requested when pursuing projects including writing the scope of work, preparing fee estimates, preparing technical graphics and concepts, reviewing proposals for other technical content, and coordinating with internal staff.
