We supported the New York City Department of Transportation's development of delivery microhubs; it's thrilling to see them roll out across the city! These facilities, where cargo is transferred to smaller, low-emission vehicles for local delivery, will cut truck traffic and make for safer streets. #delivery #cargo #freight #sustainability #transportation #UrbanPlanning

Today marks Intern Appreciation Day, a moment to recognize and celebrate the leaders of tomorrow. At TYLin, we regard internships as invaluable opportunities to inspire, nurture, and hone the skills of future engineers. Since May, our 2024 summer internship program has flourished with the participation of over 100+ interns across the world. They've been deeply involved in projects related to water infrastructure, innovative transportation solutions, and sustainable building design. United by a shared passion for a greener future, their energy and commitment are driving forces that could redefine these industries for years to come. We aim to immerse each intern in our work, fostering a deep understanding of our collaborative approach and the positive change we create in the communities we serve. The stories of Amanda Newton, EIT, Sydney McIvor, EIT, and Manuel Martinez, EIT, who all started as interns, are a testament to the transformative power of mentorship and real-world experience at TYLin.
