Moving projects and communities forward
Transportation infrastructure shapes how communities grow, connect, and experience the places around them. Delivering this requires more than engineering. It means navigating environmental resources and regulatory requirements, understanding community impacts, coordinating with agencies and stakeholders, and communicating complex projects clearly from planning through construction.
Hollaway has supported transportation infrastructure across Texas for more than 30 years, working alongside TxDOT, toll road authorities, airports, local governments, and engineering partners on highways, roadways, bridges, interchanges, toll facilities, aviation, and other major mobility investments.
Our environmental, communications, and creative teams bring different perspectives to the same project: helping to identify constraints early, navigate environmental review and permitting, engage affected communities, and translate technical information into communication people can understand.
Our Capabilities
Environmental Planning + NEPA
We help transportation teams identify environmental considerations early and develop clear, defensible documentation to support project development and decision-making.
- Feasibility and environmental constraints studies
- NEPA Documentation (Categorical Exclusions, Environmental Assessments, and Environmental Impact Studies)
- Section 4(f) evaluations
- Section 106 and cultural resources coordination
- Socioeconomic and community impact analyses
- Hazardous materials initial site assessments (Phase I ESAs)
- GIS and environmental data analysis
Natural + Water Resources
Our scientists help project teams understand existing conditions, identify potential impacts, and navigate state and federal environmental requirements.
- Wetland and stream delineations
- Clean Water Act Section 404 and Section 10 permitting support
- Protected species surveys
- Migratory bird, eagle, and freshwater mussel surveys
- Mitigation planning and coordination
- State and federal agency coordination
- Ecosystem restoration support
- Field investigations and technical documentation
Public Involvement + Stakeholder Engagement
We design engagement around the people affected by a project—not simply the requirements of the process. Our team helps clients communicate technical information clearly, reach diverse audiences, gather meaningful input, document engagement throughout project development, and maintain NEPA compliance throughout.
- Public involvement, communications, and engagement strategies
- Messaging and branding development
- Stakeholder identification
- Community and landowner outreach
- Public meetings and hearings
- Virtual and hybrid engagement
- Elected official and agency briefings
- Multilingual community engagement
- Public comment management and documentation
- Issues, crisis, and opposition communications
Creative + Digital Communications
Complex transportation projects are easier to understand when people can see what is being proposed, where it is happening, and how it may affect them. Our creative team turns technical project information into accessible, engaging visual communications.
- Project websites and digital engagement platforms
- Interactive corridor mapping and informational presentations
- Project videos and animations
- Drone photography and construction progress documentation
- Public meeting and hearing exhibits
- Infographics, fact sheets, project collateral, and educational materials
Construction Environmental Compliance + Management
Our environmental support continues beyond planning and permitting, helping project teams maintain compliance as projects move into construction.
- Pre-construction environmental surveys
- Environmental inspection and monitoring
- Permit compliance support
- Agency documentation and reporting
- Environmental Compliance Training
- Drone photography and construction progress documentation
Transportation Experience That Runs Deep
Hollaway holds TxDOT precertifications spanning transportation environmental services, public involvement, GIS, environmental documentation, permitting, natural resources, socioeconomic analysis, traffic noise, and alternative delivery.
But our transportation experience goes beyond qualifications on paper.
Our team has worked across multiple TxDOT districts and alongside some of the state’s largest transportation and tolling agencies, local governments, airports, and engineering firms. We understand how transportation projects move from early planning and environmental review through public involvement, design, and construction—and where environmental, stakeholder, or communications challenges can affect that path.
That experience allows us to anticipate what comes next, identify issues earlier, and help our clients keep projects moving.
