The Central Oregon Energy Resilience Plan was developed to strengthen the region’s capacity to anticipate, withstand, and recover from power outages while safeguarding critical services and community health. This initiative is a collaborative effort among the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council and Crook, Deschutes, and Jefferson counties. With technical leadership from Parametrix and funding from the Oregon Department of Energy, the team assessed energy vulnerabilities and mapped essential infrastructure. The plan recommends both immediate, low-cost solutions and a long-term shift toward renewable energy systems and microgrids, ensuring sustained public safety and resilient communities as the region grows.

The City of Wenatchee, Washington, in collaboration with Sustainable North Central Washington, completed its first comprehensive GHG inventory using global and state guidelines. Led by Parametrix, the project collected local and consumption-based emissions data, conducted calculations, and established a detailed audit trail. The results informed a baseline report and a strategic roadmap, including input from city, utility, and community stakeholders. This inventory created Wenatchee’s first quantitative emissions baseline, shaping a strategic plan that targets impactful, cost-effective GHG reduction strategies in areas like building electrification and energy efficiency.

The Tongass Avenue and Water Street Corridor encompasses the Water Street and Tongass Avenue viaducts, along with the connecting roadway that together form a continuous segment of the Tongass Highway through downtown Ketchikan. The corridor supports a mix of vehicular traffic, freight movement, emergency services, and pedestrian use tied to nearby land uses and seasonal

The I-280 Northbound Ramp/Geneva Avenue Safety Study examined ways to improve multimodal safety and address backups at the I-280 northbound off-ramp at Geneva Avenue. This street is one of the neighborhood’s primary east-west corridors as it supports Balboa Park Station, one of the busiest transit hubs in San Francisco. Vehicle queues spilling back onto the freeway had caused

The Port of Morrow is a major Oregon hub that reuses over 2.7 billion gallons of industrial wastewater each year.

US 180 connects I-10 and the Silver City area and serves as a critical route supporting Southwest New Mexico’s copper mining and tourist industries. To improve safety, mobility, and regional connectivity for residents and visitors, the highway was expanded from two to four lanes along a 5-mile segment from Bayard to Hurley. This included removing

The town of Carnuel, New Mexico, is nestled into Tijeras Canyon along Interstate 40 and the former Route 66. Four bridges built in 1978 span the Tijeras Arroyo (a steep gully formed by fast-flowing water). Located east of Albuquerque, the bridges serve as a major freight corridor and gateway into the city. Parametrix assisted the

The BART Ashby Station Bicycle Access Improvement project closes a gap in Berkeley’s bike network, connecting Woolsey Street to Prince Street. This project included a one-way inbound bike lane from Woolsey Street-Adeline Street into the station area and a two-way cycle-track from MLK Jr. Way-Prince Street. The work required widening and re-grading an access roadway to add

The Central Marin Regional Pathway Gap Closure project sits at the nexus of five active transportation routes, including an interchange with Highway 101. This project provides safer infrastructure for the 1.6 million pedestrians and bicyclists accessing these routes each year. The Town of Corte Madera was awarded an Active Transportation Program state grant for $1.5

The Napa Valley Vine Trail, part of the larger San Francisco Bay Trail-Napa Valley Vine Trail network, is a 47-mile route connecting the Vallejo Ferry Terminal to Calistoga, California. The trail features separated two-way and directional bicycle facilities, shared-use pathways, protected intersections, interpretive signage, and shelters. The paths provide safe, attractive routes to travel between
