The conventional Three E's of engineering, education, and enforcement do not provide the guidance or moral compass we need to plan, design, and build a transportation system for the 21st century. It's time for a new approach to transportation, based on the values we want to see reflected in our communities. Toole Design looks beyond what's always been done to envision the possible, to build thriving, diverse communities centered around people. We believe that streets, paths, and sidewalks should make it easy for people to safely experience and enjoy places, not simply pass them by.
