Engineers in this specialization:
*Handle the planning, design, construction, and operation of highways, roads, and other vehicular facilities as well as their related [[cycling infrastructure|bicycle]] and pedestrian realms
*Estimate the transportation needs of the public and then secure the funding for projects
*Analyze locations of high traffic volumes and high collisions for safety and capacity
*Use engineering principles to improve the transportation system
*Utilize the three design controls, which are the drivers, the vehicles, and the roadways themselves
