We is me, I’m Tyler.

I started this one-man consulting firm (clever name, right?) to help agencies and firms with their uniquely complex traffic problems. Why would someone take on something like this in addition to their full-time job and everything else that life entails? Because I think about traffic a lot and I’ve been lucky enough to take part in some truly niche work up to this point in my career. Niche enough that I might be able to help you out.

From my college job with the University of Minnesota’s Campus Transportation group tweaking Gopher Football Gameday plans, I got my first taste of what it takes to get masses of people in and out of an event safely and efficiently.

Then I spent the next 8 years as a traffic signal timing consultant with Alliant Engineering, where I retimed and implemented more than 700 signals over 150+ corridors across the Midwest. In that time I helped retime large portions of Minneapolis and aided in updating those plans for the US Bank Stadium event plans, partook in regional design-build detour signal timing optimizations, and retimed the City of Inglewood’s system (including Sofi Stadium’s event plans). Once again I found myself drawn to moving large surges of people and had the signal timing toolbox to do it well.

Afterwards I moved to Illinois for a few years, where I managed the Traffic Signals group for the City of Chicago. Balancing all of those bizarre multi-legged intersections, large amounts of traffic, and urban/non-motorized needs posed a challenge, but my past experience was perfectly aligned and sharpened from my time there. In my time there I signed off on more than 120 signal designs and 300 signal timing plans.

Now I’m back in Minnesota and am serving as the County Traffic Engineer for Dakota County. I still miss those unique timing problems, and this consulting operation serves to scratch that itch. If you have some of those complex problems, “we” may have some solutions for you, check out our services.
