Local Landscape Architects Partner With Transit Group

Peter Simone.

NORRISTOWN PA – The landscape planning, design, and architecture firm that has done so much work with Lower Pottsgrove and Limerick (PA) townships and the borough of Pottstown in recent years, Simone Collins of Norristown PA, has become a partner member of the Greater Valley Forge Transportation Management Association (GVFTMA), that organization recently announced.

GVFTMA is a non-profit group created to advocate and promote a viable transportation network to benefit the area’s economic vitality. It now has more than 100 partner members dedicated to decreasing congestion and increasing mobility across the region.

GVFTMA’s “role is critical,” Simone Collins principal Peter Simone said. “Virtually every project our firm undertakes relies on one mode or another of transportation – rail, motor vehicle, bicycle or pedestrian.” The organization “helps keep us up-to-date on the latest area transportation projects and innovations. This allows us to convey important information to our clients … an invaluable service,” he added.

Simone Collins provides consulting services to public and private sector clients in planning, zoning, site design, and landscape architecture. The firm is known for its work in public parks, trails and public involvement strategies. Lower Pottsgrove, Limerick and Pottstown all are among its clients.
