I engineering rlTn grogp, inc. Qualification Statement Parking Studies RK engineering group, inc, has completed a number of parking studies for residential, commercial and industrial developments. Studies have included evaluating existing parking demand and the assessment of "shared parking" through the use of ULI shared parking evaluation procedures. Parking management plans have been developed to control parking for high parking generators (i.e. large institutional uses and special events including raceways and concerts). RK engineering group, inc. develops creative and innovative methods for maximizing the efficiency of available parking resources Re-evaluating existing parking facility designs to improve circulation, safety, modify control operations and maximization of parking spaces is also a specialty of the company. i IN Environmental Engineering ■ As communities continue to evolve and develop, environmental noise and air quality impacts are a potential by-product of community ■■■ expansion. RK engineering group, inc.. services include EIR air/noise studies, noise contour analysis, noise exposure maps (NEM), air/noise impact studies, community and environmental air/noise planning and noise mitigation design. The effects of traffic on noise and air quality are a significant by-product of roadway design. Robert Kahn, P.E. a Certified Acoustical Engineer (No. 112-88) in the County of Orange and is supported by Michael Dickerson, INCE (Institute of Noise Control Engineers) member. RK engineering group, inc, services include acoustical studies, truck mix studies, noise control assessments and noise mitigation design. RK engineering group, inc. uses "state of the art" computer modeling to project noise impacts and also has the equipment to perform field measurements. Traffic Engineering RK engineering group, inc. provides a full range of traffic engineering capabilities including the design of traffic signals, signing and striping, street lighting and worksite traffic control plans. RK engineering group, inc. also provides studies for traffic signal warrants, weaving analysis, intersection safety studies and many other traffic engineering services that also include, but are definitely not limited to, pedestrian/ bicycle studies, warrant analysis, CA MUTCD compatibility and sight distance reviews. Work products provided by the firm can include concept plans, improvement plans, construction documents, traffic safetyAraffic control studies and recommendations with respect to evaluating traffic control devices and other roadway design features. Traffic design plans are prepared using AutoCAD software to easily interface with other project plans. RK engineering group, inc. can prepare engineering studies to identify appropriate speed limits based upon radar speed surveys. Field review of existing conditions is an important element of the RK engineering group, inc. design process. RK engineering group, inc. provides services for traffic signal timing and coordination in linking traffic signals along a corridor. The goal of traffic signal coordination is to safely optimize driver travel times and traffic flow along arterial corridors. This efficient method of operating traffic control systems not only benefits public safety but also benefits air quality resulting from lower emissions from decreased stop -and - go traffic. Traffic signal timing and coordination is a beneficial and cost effective method that increases driver mobility while also reducing air pollution. By providing traffic signal and coordination services, RK engineering group, inc. continues to aid cities and agencies in effectively reducing traffic congestion delay and air pollution. RK engineering group, inc. responsibilities can also include providing complete traffic engineering plans, specifications and cost estimates; evaluating existing traffic conditions, including traffic control devices; recommending appropriate speed limits based upon radar speed studies, accident history and existing physical conditions; reviewing the need for traffic control devices; sight distance evaluations, including before and after project implementation; evaluation of the need for speed humps as an appropriate roadway design feature and other traffic engineering functions.
