DESIGN SERVICES
We offer comprehensive planning and design services for traffic gardens, working independently or as part of a larger consulting team. Our detailed AutoCAD drawing packages include essential installer information and can be integrated into broader site plans, such as school modernization or playground projects.
While DTG provides expert guidance and installation coordination, we do not perform or supervise installations.
ACTIVITIES
Fionnuala creates custom programs and workshops for children or adults—ranging from small classes to large community events with hundreds of attendees. She develops hands-on public input sessions and STEM activities focused on traffic garden design.
You can also license our custom STEM graphics and materials for your own programs or projects
PRESENTATIONS
Fionnuala’s engaging storytelling and speaking style inspires communities to install traffic gardens. For smaller events within driving or train distance of Northern Virginia, she can provide a customized estimate including expenses.
For larger events involving more travel and preparation, she can help develop a fair, comprehensive cost estimate.
Pro-bono Requests
As a small business, our capacity is limited, but we can contribute guidance and resources as our schedule allows, prioritizing youth-focused initiatives and volunteer advocacy groups. Detailed lists of questions will be answered as time permits, though scheduling a brief call is often more efficient. Please note that we are not available to plan events pro-bono. We appreciate acknowledgment of our pro-bono contributions.

Typical Traffic Garden Design Process
Once design begins, we provide step-by-step guidance in close collaboration with your local team. We learn about your vision, evaluate the site, and identify any needed adjustments. Typically, we prepare three conceptual layouts for discussion and review. We work with your team to develop the preferred layout and refine it into detailed, customized drawings. We provide a complete set of plans and offer support during the installation phase. Throughout, we help keep things on track and focused on a successful outcome.
Our detailed plans provide clear guidance on materials and surface application, helping to secure contractor bids and ensure proper installation of the traffic garden.
