Planning
Our team of planners, urban designers and landscape architects deliver experience, expertise and creative thinking on every project. Planning at any level is a complex undertaking, whether it’s for a neighborhood, a town or city, or an entire region. At Colliers Engineering & Design, planning is both comprehensive and multi-disciplinary. Our planning professionals connect with the community to understand long-term goals and capture potential opportunities that result in enduring solutions. Our landscape architects take community visions one step further by delivering innovative design solutions that bring vibrancy and excitement into the public realm.
Planning has been a core practice at Colliers Engineering & Design for more than a decade. Our award-winning, nationally-recognized team of professional planners, landscape architects, civic engagement specialists, GIS analysts and environmental scientists works with communities to develop plans and designs that are creative, well-rounded, thoughtful and realistic.
