Intern Perspectives: A Summer in Transportation
What does a transportation internship actually look like? This summer, 25 interns across 14 of our offices gained hands-on experience with fieldwork, street design, GIS, data analysis, visual communication, client work, and community engagement. See what they learned, what surprised them, and how the experience shaped the way they think about careers in transportation.
Looking at Street Safety Through the Lens of Kinetic Energy
This ITE Technical brief explores how kinetic energy can add another dimension to roadway safety analysis, helping practitioners consider where conditions for serious harm may exist even before severe crash patterns emerge.
Understanding AI’s Role in Transportation Safety
AI is giving transportation safety practitioners new ways to analyze data, detect near misses, and respond to risk before crashes happen. Real-world examples from Bellevue, WA and San Bernardino, CA show where AI-supported technology is delivering value—and where human judgment remains essential for turning data into responsible safety decisions.
