Beyondware’s premier 3D roadway typical section builder – Beyond Typicals – was featured at a STEM camp attended by the next generation of engineers and innovators.

Back-in angled parking configurations have been gaining popularity in many cities, but there are some hurdles to be considered before its widespread implementation. Overcoming its unfamiliarity can result in enhanced visibility, safer operations, and added convenience. 

As cities continue to evolve their transportation systems to prioritize safety and sustainability, reconfiguring busy streets to reduce the risk of “multiple-threat” pedestrian crashes is an important consideration. This may involve rethinking the use of curbside bus pull-outs, which can create visibility challenges and increase the risk of collisions with pedestrians.
