Environmental Mitigation

With pollution of all forms increasingly affecting our daily lives, environmental values have reasserted themselves into the mainstream consciousness. Can design be brought to bear in developing effective mitigation measures to lessen the adverse impacts of congestion, noise and light pollution? At Jones Payne, we have specialized in developing design-based strategies for reducing operating speeds on congested urban arterials within a community's commercial core, creating effective buffers between airports and their surrounding communities, and delivering community-based sound insulation programs that treat sensitive receptors such as residential, educational and civic buildings.

Key Projects include:

• Logan Airport Edge Study (MA)
• Logan Growth and Impact Control (LOGIC) Study (MA)
• North service Area E.I.R. (MA)
• Noise Mitigation Programs (U.S.)
