Land Surveying
We provide professional survey services with great attention to our clients’ needs. Over the years, we have successfully completed numerous control, aerial mapping, ALTA/ASCM, boundary, high-definition 3D laser scanning, as-built, hydrographic, right-of-way, topographic mapping, LiDAR surveys, and construction surveys.
LiDAR:
We offer Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) scanning, which provides a complete capture of the project site, eliminates the need for unnecessary return trips, and improves safety for surveyors. Our Leica Pegasus: Two truck-mounted LiDAR unit produces extremely detailed 360° scans in a fraction of the time, providing faster data collection and overall cost savings.
UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE SURVEY:
Horrocks is a complete end-to-end drone data collection provider. We collect, analyze, and distribute aerial data quickly and cost effectively by utilizing standard equipment combined with newer platforms such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our projects range in scope from large-scale transportation projects to small parcels of land.

Landscape Architecture
Whether planning and designing a themed municipal park and trail system or providing landscaping and aesthetics for a water or sewer pump station project, our priority is to listen to the client, public, and facility users to create a space that complements the existing community and environment. Horrocks emphasizes the importance of creating design themes that are timeless and allow for individual interpretation. Specific design elements should work together as a unified whole to include buildings, sculptural elements, plantings, irrigation systems, site drainage, erosion control, lighting, paved maintenance areas, security, etc. Our team develops project management plans that are specific to each project. They focus on the team; collaboration; and properly managing the quality, schedule, and budget of each project. This approach helps maximize project quality and efficiency through the coordination of work tasks and the development of specific project delivery plans.
Master Planning & Studies
Horrocks has successfully delivered planning projects for numerous regions, transportation corridors, state highways, and local roads in Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and Colorado. Our firm has built its reputation by consistently providing high-quality transportation planning and design. We have developed a broad range of services to aid in master planning, including: simulation/visioning, traffic demand modeling, traffic impact studies, cost determinations, traffic design, GIS, corridor planning, corridor operations, alternatives analysis, innovative intersections and interchanges, and multimodal planning (bike, pedestrian, and transit).
Neighborhood & Community Planning
The combined experience of our municipal and land development groups has given us valuable insight into the development process both as support staff to the city reviewing applications and as the applicant’s representative working for developers. We have successfully taken hundreds of projects through city approval processes in various municipalities. We have partnered with different cities in completing more than 25 facility impact fee analysis plans, code revisions, and infrastructure master plans in the last 10 years. We know and understand the city processes from multiple perspectives and can effectively carry a project through approvals from start to finish.
Parks & Trails Planning & Design
Horrocks’ planning and urban design team members create solutions that combine thorough analysis, economic practicality, environmental responsibility, and cultural awareness. A community that is safe for pedestrians and bicyclists will draw new residents and keep current residents happy. It means a better quality of life that Horrocks is committed to providing. We have experience in walkable/bikeable community planning, which includes trail design and planning, sidewalk design, bicycle lane design, traffic calming measures, and more. We can meet our client’s goals, large or small, and will make sure that their vision of a community becomes a success.
Storm Water Polution Prevention Plans
We design new or upgrade existing storm water systems for private, municipal, and transportation drainage projects, including debris basins, collection systems, and water quality improvements. Our team is particularly skilled in floodplain management to prevent damage to infrastructure, homes, and our natural water systems in the event of fire and/or floods.
Subdivision Design
With the increasing demands for housing, we plan and design residential developments that integrate the natural and built environments into sustainable communities that will benefit citizens. As a full-service civil engineering and professional services consultant, we can provide any service needed for subdivision design and platting. We work closely with clients to meet the unique needs of each development, ultimately enhancing the lives of the residents.
Sustainable Development & Design
To meet increasing demands on transportation, every mode must be accessible, connected, and utilized, creating dynamic communities. We implement cutting-edge technology and use data to enhance travel efficiencies and interconnectivity for pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, and motorists. Sustainable transportation systems result in an improved environment, economy, and overall quality of life.
Traffic Studies
Transportation systems provide vital connections for our communities, producing greater mobility and economic vitality. Our diverse portfolio has established our reputation as one of the premier firms providing quality planning, design, and construction management of highways, freeways, and local roadways.

We understand the vital needs for addressing all modes of traffic, including mass and pedestrian transit, and can successfully address those needs in any given community.
Transit-Oriented Development (TOD)
Transit systems connect people with resources, recreation, and employment. That is why high-quality transit design is so important to the social and economic well-being and sustainability of our communities. Over the years, Horrocks has developed a broad range of services to aid in the coordination, planning, and design of heavy railway, light rail, bus, and active transportation projects. Recently, we have expanded those transit services to include capital development program management, Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) project controls, and interagency coordination.
