Crawford, Murphy & Tilly (CMT) is honored to receive an American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) National Recognition Award for the St. Louis Citywide Transportation and Mobility Plan (TMP) at its annual Engineering Excellence Awards Gala.
The St. Louis TMP is the City’s first comprehensive transportation plan in more than 75 years. It sets a bold, long-term vision for how people move and how communities thrive. Developed through robust public engagement, the TMP reflects the lived experiences and values of St. Louis residents, prioritizing safety, connectivity, and maintenance across all modes of transportation.
“Partnering with the City of St. Louis, the TMP reflects a shared commitment to safer streets and people-centered mobility that strengthens neighborhoods citywide.“
Jay Rakers, PE
St. Louis Surface Transportation Group Manager
One of the plan’s most innovative components is the Street Design Framework, which reimagines how streets function – not just as conduits for cars, but as public spaces that support walking, biking, transit, and accessibility. The framework categorizes every street based on its surrounding context and outlines how each should be designed to serve people first. Safety is a foundational pillar of the TMP, which introduces a data-driven Safety Action Plan designed to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries by 50% by 2050.
The TMP was officially adopted into the City’s comprehensive plan in late 2025.
