With more than a century of global project experience with ports and harbors, URS offers comprehensive capabilities including planning, environmental remediation, coastal engineering and facilities design, and program and construction management, as well as hard construction services for major waterfront projects.

From major waterfront support structures for bulk handling, to container and cruise ship facilities and navy port installations, to recreational marinas, our projects incorporate the most advanced designs, security services and practices.

Known worldwide for seismic design, we have applied lessons learned from previous earthquakes to reduce seismic risk at the Ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach and Portland.

As geotechnical experts, we meet all the soil mechanics and foundation engineering needs of port and harbor projects. With Geographic Information Systems (GIS) expertise, we offer creative applications of GIS methods to develop innovative and practical solutions for port infrastructure development. We have implemented storm water management programs at ports from South Carolina to California to facilitate expansion plans while minimizing their environmental impacts on water quality.

We also provide threat and vulnerability assessment, risk mitigation, feasibility analysis and design services for cargo container inspection facilities as well as specialized development and operations support services for waterfront industrial facilities.
