Tiffany Card, PE, and Dennis Vertiyev, PE, recently presented at the ACEC Vermont Annual Transportation Technical Workshop, highlighting the Route 2A over I-95 interchange redesign in Lexington, MA, for the Massachusetts Department of Transportation.

The project replaces a traditional cloverleaf configuration with modern roundabouts, improving safety and traffic operations while reducing congestion. The reimagined interchange also leverages the replacement of a structurally deficient bridge to simplify movements and eliminate operational inefficiencies.

Multimodal improvements were a key focus, including a separated shared-use path, ADA-compliant crossings, and traffic calming measures along Route 2A to better support pedestrians and cyclists.

This project reflects the growing collaboration and shared technical capabilities of Lochner and Egis in delivering forward-thinking infrastructure solutions that enhance safety, mobility, and long-term community value.

Our aviation team was proud to attend and exhibit at the 44th Texas Aviation Conference in Frisco, Texas, connecting with industry professionals and clients from across the country. We also hosted an evening at PopStroke, creating space to continue conversations and strengthen relationships beyond the conference floor.

As Lochner becomes part of Egis, we are expanding the expertise and capabilities we bring to these discussions, combining trusted local aviation experience with global resources to better support the evolving needs of the aviation industry and the communities we serve.

Leaders from across Lochner, RockSol Consulting Group, Inc., and Egis recently came together in Austin, Texas for an energizing two days centered on connection and collaboration.

The Egis U.S. Leadership Summit brought together teams from across the country to align on shared priorities, explore opportunities across our markets, and continue strengthening how we deliver for our clients and communities. Conversations highlighted growth across U.S. business lines, deepening client relationships, insights on the evolving A/E landscape, and investing in the people and teams driving our success.

Equally important were the connections formed throughout the summit. Bringing leaders together created space to exchange ideas, build meaningful relationships, bringing the “One Egis” vision to life.

We’re excited about what’s ahead as we continue building together—pairing trusted local expertise with the strength of our global capabilities.
