New transit planning group director joins HNTB

Steven Greene joined HNTB Corp.’s west division transit practice as group director, planning, and associate VP.

At HNTB, Greene will be responsible for the development and support of the firm’s expanding multimodal transit planning practice, focusing on transit and corridor studies. Greene will also work with clients to advance projects from early feasibility studies to delivery. He is based in the firm’s downtown Los Angeles office. 

With more than 15 years of expertise in transportation planning and analysis, Greene has extensive experience conducting feasibility studies for regional transportation agencies.

Prior to joining HNTB, Greene served as senior program manager and associate VP for another transportation consulting firm. His experience includes planning and engineering of the light rail transit alternative for Metro’s SR 710 North Study; ridership and financial forecasts for that agency’s Sepulveda Pass Corridor Systems Planning Study; and studies of post-Environmental Impact Report refinements for Phase 2B of the Gold Line Foothill Extension for the Gold Line Foothill Extension Construction Authority. He was also the consultant project manager for the aviation chapter of the 2016 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy for the Southern California Association of Governments.

HNTB is an infrastructure solutions firm in the U.S., with roots to the West since beginning work on Pasadena’s Arroyo Seco Bridge in 1914, the firm’s first year of operation. The company has since been involved in some of the region’s most high-profile, complex infrastructure programs.

Currently, the firm is providing design and engineering services for the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project on behalf of the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority. HNTB is also working with the City of Los Angeles to deliver final design and construction support services for the Sixth Street Viaduct over the Los Angeles River between downtown and Boyle Heights.
