TEI Planning + Design

Cold weather is upon us! At TEI we understand that not everyone is able or chooses to drive, even when temps fall. Here are some helpful tips to keep warm when the weather drops. #weathertips #bikelife #houstontx

TEI CEO Rachel Carleton was invited to the Precinct 4 Commissioner’s October Women’s Small Business Month Resolution honoring women-owned businesses in Harris County last Tuesday. The planning team is supporting the precinct with the "All in 4 Inner Northwest Community Plan."

Throwback to last Thursdays Halloween shenanigans :)

TEI, HGAC, and Asakura Robinson partnered with the First Ward Civic Club to engage neighbors at the community's National Night Out event on Tuesday, October 1st. Thanks to all of the community members who shared your feedback! We're excited to see more safe streets for all.

Our application for summer engineering interns closes on November 1st. If you or anyone you know is an engineering major and wants to learn how to design more sustainable transportation infrastructure, be sure to apply! Application can be found here: teiconnects.com/career/enginee…

@HoustonMatters "A large % of Houstonians don't drive or can't drive," says @CarletonGeoff of @TEI_PlanDesign. "As a city that we like to think of as inclusive and diverse, it's important we take all perspectives in mind when thinking about our transportation system." houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/shows…

Not every journey can be the most convenient or fastest. Watch as @justin.welling embarks on a 13-mile transit journey to West Houston during #WeekWithoutDriving. Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): uppbeat.io/t/hartzmann/vo… License code: JEFZEQ7YQOCQ4LA1

Houston may be a big city, but it is much easier to get around than Houston drivers would think! @classicryan17 shows how he uses public transit to run errands with time to spare before heading out to LINK Houston's Transit Fundraiser. #WeekWithoutDriving #accessibilityforall

Crossing the street and making it over curbs on wheels takes on a whole new level of awareness and risk that most of us may take for granted. Here's a glimpse of what Aaron goes through with his baby on the daily. #weekwithoutdriving #accessibilityforall

@BoosterMPS Such a great street! 🙌

@TEI_PlanDesign Bagby Street remains the gold standard that we should strive for everywhere!

Is it this amazing weather or are we just enjoying #weekwithoutdriving? We're into Day 3 of the challenge! Victoria takes us through what it is like when she walks to work. Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi… License code: 5EHASUDXVRTG5EPK

Location can make a huge difference on options to get around the city. In Laura's story, because of her location out in the suburbs, access to other modes of transportation to into the city are limited. #WeekWithoutDriving #accessibilityforall

Did you know that 30% of Americans are not able to drive? We often take driving for granted without a full understanding of what people who don’t have access to driving go through while trying to get around on a daily basis. See how Sydney gets to work during #weekwithoutdriving

We’re joining @americawalks in their challenge to go a #weekwithoutdriving starting Monday, September 30 through Sunday, October 6 to bring awareness of “the barriers and challenges that nondrivers face and work with nondrivers to create more accessible communities for all.”

@HoustonFoodBank Yes! TEI has proudly supported @HoustonFoodBank since 2017. You will see us again! In the meantime, thanks for all you do to thoughtfully and effectively address hunger across the Houston region! 🍏

@TEI_PlanDesign Thank you for your gift of time and for providing #FoodForBetterLives! We hope to see you again soon.

🎒How many kids did you help feed today? 🎒#BackpackBuddies For our annual day of service, TEI team members met up at @HoustonFoodBank jammed to great tunes, and helped package 10,800 meals for school kids. Fun and satisfying morning!

... and congratulations to TEI's Chelsea Young who claimed third place in the Jones On Main tenant costume contest!

If you drive today, please drive with care. You never know who you'll meet on the street! Let's all do our part to help make sure everyone gets home safely tonight. @VisionZeroTexas @DowntownHouston
