Projects
TGC partnered with Harris County Precinct 4 to secure $11.3M through the Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Grant for the Burnett Bayland Park Improvements Project in Houston's Gulfton community.
TGC provided the Greater Northside Management District, in partnership with Harris County Precinct 2, a Capital Project Development Strategy — Northside On the Move — to identify and prioritize transportation and mobility improvement projects for which the District could systematically pursue funding to enhance transportation infrastructure.
TGC teamed with UltraBarrio to develop the Southwest Civic Core Redevelopment Plan, an action plan for Houston's most dense and diverse neighborhood. This plan synthesizes and builds upon more than 15 years of community planning and development efforts across the Greater Sharpstown and Gulfton areas, leveraging the collective actions and emergent possibilities of a stronger, more strategic framework for action.
TGC worked with Doña Ana County, New Mexico as the lead planning and funding consultant and developed grant applications through two competitive programs. TGC successfully secured a $31M grant from the USDOT Federal Railroad Administration FY22 Railroad Crossing Elimination Program.
TGC serves as a general planning consultant for The Woodlands Township Transit Department since 2020. Services include transit asset management planning, short and long range planning, National Transit Database reporting, Title VI and DBE compliance, procurements, funding pursuit, grant management, and more.
To help encourage safe pedestrian access and economic development, the St. George Place Redevelopment Authority proposed a plan to build a sidewalk over the well-worn paths. TGC led project development, engineering design, and construction administration as well as intergovernmental coordination.
TGC led the process to develop and evaluate several transit service concepts related to the Rethinking I-94: Phase 2 Environmental Process. Our “Rethinking I-94 Transit Scoping & Idea Exploration Technical Memorandum” serves as a resource for MnDOT to strategically consider how to integrate transit improvements into potential highway designs in the I-94 corridor.
TGC was hired by four clients to develop Off-System Highway Safety Improvement Program grant applications for submission to the Texas Department of Transportation. TGC’s efforts included developing schematic concepts, safety benefit calculations, and full application documentation. We secured approximately $1.75M in federal funding for the implementation for all four projects.
