Water/Wastewater Engineering

From tunnels, conveyance, collection, distribution & storage to drinking water treatment and supply, wastewater treatment, reuse water designs and horizontal directional drilling (HDD), the firm has a history of designing innovative and world record setting projects and then doing what tried and true design firms do best, breaking our own records. For 60 years, Hussey Gay Bell has been designing water resources projects – thousands of projects ranging from 50 – 7,000 GPM pump stations, 500+ miles of collections including force mains 2-48”and gravity sewer 8-54” to 400+ miles of water mains ranging from 2-48” and 50+ wastewater treatment plants ranging from 0.098 to 27 MGD. Not to mention, we have successfully designed more significant HDD projects than any firm in the region – subaqueous lines up to 36” drilled under sensitive coastal watersheds, marshes and under recreational rivers and lines drilled under active highways, railways and bridges. Our long, single-pull HDD projects in excess of 2,500 LF are what we’re known for in the HDD industry. We keep the region moving through smart design while improving system reliabilities through resilient design.

Transportation Systems Engineering

As our Southeastern region grows, so does the demand for safe and rapid transportation. Innovation modes are emerging from commercial vehicle lanes to autonomous vehicles, electric cars and post-Panamax ships and as a result our behaviors are changing. The emergence of new, better and faster ways to move are driving the way we design and think about design. How can we move quicker, faster, more safely about and through our region? We can start with innovative designs – designs that allow humans and goods to move quicker, faster, safer, better across roads, rail and water – whether it be by foot or by ships, planes, trains and automobiles, our engineers are thinking about you, your safety and your wellbeing.
