Roadway Design

GUY Engineering designs safe, durable, and practical roadways that strengthen communities and keep people moving. With more than 30 years of roadway design experience and over 150 roadway projects completed, our team delivers solutions for everything from rural county roads and roadway overlays to city arterial streets, highway reconstructions, intersection improvements, and Tribal transportation corridors.

Our experience spans all functional classifications and project settings (rural, urban, municipal, county, state, Tribal, and federal). Whether a project involves a simple pavement rehabilitation or a complex corridor requiring roadway widening, drainage improvements, utility coordination, right-of-way acquisition, sidewalks, and traffic control, GUY brings the technical depth and local knowledge to move it forward.

Roadway design is about more than pavement. It is about improving safety, access, mobility, drainage, and long-term value while respecting budgets, property owners, utilities, environmental resources, and the character of the surrounding community.

Designed Around Your Community and Project Needs

Every roadway has unique constraints. GUY evaluates existing conditions, traffic needs, drainage patterns, terrain, utilities, property impacts, environmental considerations, and future growth to develop solutions that are efficient, constructible, and built to last.

Our engineers perform detailed horizontal and vertical alignment analyses to identify the most practical route and profile for each project. This helps improve safety, reduce construction costs, minimize impacts to landowners and sensitive areas, and avoid unnecessary utility conflicts whenever possible.

We design both open roadway sections with ditching and culverts, as well as urban curb-and-gutter systems with storm sewers, sidewalks, accessible curb ramps, and pedestrian improvements. Our in-house hydraulic and drainage expertise helps ensure roadway drainage systems are properly sized and coordinated with the overall design.

Integrated Services That Keep Projects Moving

GUY’s roadway clients benefit from a fully integrated team. In-house surveying, utility relocation coordination, right-of-way acquisition, landowner coordination, flood-control and drainage design, bridge design, and program-management capabilities allow us to address issues early and keep communication streamlined throughout the project. This approach improves coordination, supports more informed decisions, reduces avoidable delays, and creates a smoother path from concept through construction.

Experience That Delivers Results

From a local roadway overlay to a major transportation corridor, GUY delivers roadway designs that move communities forward, improve safety, and stand the test of time.

Let’s build a roadway solution that serves your community for generations to come.
