Civil Engineering Intern

• Jul 2017 - Dec 2017

Most of my activities at the Grand Forks-East Grand Forks MPO centered around developing the 2017 Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan Update, including the following: I acquired crash data from the NDDOT and MnDOT regarding crashes between motor vehicles and bicyclists or pedestrians in the Grand Forks-East Grand Forks area. I then used this data to perform a cross-tabulation analysis of the provided crash data to determine possible trends and relationships related to the crashes. I developed preliminary designs for on-road bicycle facilities for the Grand Forks-East Grand Forks MPO. I based appropriate bicycle facility designs on existing street conditions and applicable standards from the AASHTO Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities and the NACTO Urban Bikeway Design Guide. I refined existing and planned bicycle facility access to trip generators for the Grand Forks-East Grand Forks area from the year 2013 to be reflective of year 2017. Show less
