Urban transit

The growth of motorized transportation and resulting traffic congestion has created many economic, health and environmental problems in urban areas across the globe. Choosing the right strategy to combat these issues can be a difficult task due to the complexities of urban systems and their hinterlands. Steer supports public agencies, private financiers, operators and regulators to ensure transportation systems help people, places and economies thrive.

A renewed focus on decarbonization, increasing social mobility, rising fuel costs, changing demographics, and evolving digital/energy landscapes create a dynamic, evolving environment for travel demands. At the same time, transit providers are experiencing reduced funding opportunities, disruption from on-demand technology and continued reliance on single occupancy vehicles. This can create a multitude of competing demands and varying factors that make it difficult to successfully integrate mobility planning into evolving urban areas. Steer’s wide breadth of experience and capabilities allow us to understand the complexities of urban transportation problems to provide context-sensitive, comprehensive solutions. Using lessons learned from our work globally, we develop the best applications to plan for integrated mobility in each project location.

Steer brings integrated and practical thinking combined with technical expertise to help clients develop urban transportation solutions, including mode choice, strategic planning, design, feasibility, regulation and policy.
