Inside Our Summer Intern Program
Inside Our Summer Intern Program
At our company, we’re passionate about transportation and seek like-minded individuals who share our desire to improve the ways people experience transportation across communities. Our internship program is designed to put passion into action from day one. Interns don’t fetch coffee—they dive into impactful projects, collaborating closely with experts in the field.
Here’s a glimpse of the types of projects our interns worked on:
- Active Transportation: Enhancing pedestrian and cycling infrastructure.
- VMT Impacts: Analyzing Vehicle Miles Traveled to reduce environmental footprints.
- Equity in Transportation: Ensuring fair and accessible transportation for all communities.
Collaborative Learning Beyond Our Walls
In addition to our in-house program, this year Fehr & Peers participated in the Environmental, Engineering, and Planning Internship and Charrette (EEPIC) program. EEPIC provides students from underrepresented communities the chance to participate in a two-week charrette focused on an actual project proposed by a local agency. In collaboration with Ascent, Dudek, Environmental Science Associates, PlaceWorks, and Rincon Consultants, Inc., we created opportunities for two of our interns, alongside their interns, to dive into policy, sustainability, design, collaboration, equity, and engagement, shaping the future of Elk Grove, California.

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.
New NCHRP Toolkit Helps Agencies Build Safety Into Everyday Decisions
Making streets safer takes more than individual projects. Our new Safe System approach toolkit, developed through NCHRP Research Report 1181, helps agencies integrate safety into policies, budgets, design standards, and land use decisions. Explore practical tools, real-world case studies, and new IIHS Safe System success stories that show how agencies are turning safety into standard practice.
