Last week we celebrated the opening of the US 101/Trimble/De La Cruz Interchange Improvement Project! Although I've worked on several interchange projects, this was the first ribbon cutting ceremony I have been able to attend, and I was so excited to celebrate with the team and all those who played a part in making this project a reality. The project includes a new, wider overcrossing, upgraded on and off-ramp facilities, removal of a tight weave segment on US 101, and a new Class I bike/ped path that goes under the southbound ramps and connects Central Expressway to the Guadalupe River Trail! Such a great project! Congrats! Suzanne Luckjiff Tiffany Nguyen, EIT Fehr & Peers

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Jerry Walters, who, alongside Juergen Fehr and Jack Peers, helped found Fehr & Peers in 1985. Today, we pause to remember and celebrate his profound impact. Jerry was a brilliant mind and a gentle giant in our field whose legacy will continue to inspire us at Fehr & Peers. Jerry’s innovative spirit, his passion for finding new ways to help our clients answer unique questions, and his ability to push our profession toward better, more rigorous ways of doing our work have left an indelible mark on our industry. Jerry’s humility and intellect were unmatched. His groundbreaking work with the EPA in the late '90s to develop more sophisticated and accurate methods to evaluate trip generation for mixed-use developments led to the creation of the Smart Growth Index tool—a precursor to our MXD+/Mainstreet tool that we use today. His leadership on efforts to quantify the benefits of TDM strategies for the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA), as well as innumerable other transformational efforts, have shaped not just our firm’s technical reputation but also our internal culture, as well as so many of our individual careers. Though we mourn Jerry's loss, we celebrate his incredible life and his lasting impact on Fehr & Peers and the broader transportation community. His legacy of innovation and collaboration will continue to guide us as we move forward.
