At its core, civil engineering is about people and how we interact with the built and natural worlds around us. It’s about designing spaces, systems, and infrastructure that help communities function and flourish. For Timmons Group, that purpose has guided us since our founding in Richmond, Virginia in 1953, and it continues to shape how we work across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast today.
This year, we are honored to be recognized by the Triangle, Triad, Charlotte, Washington, and Baltimore Business Journals as a top engineering firm in the markets we serve. These acknowledgments are a meaningful reflection of the relationships we’ve built, the trust our clients place in us, and the work our teams do each day to support growing and evolving communities.
With our history spanning more than 70 years, Timmons Group has grown with the communities we serve across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast—most recently expanding into Southwest Virginia and South Carolina to strengthen our support for local clients.
From designing some of Richmond’s early highway infrastructure to supporting the development of technology corridors, parks and recreation areas, urban communities, and industrial campus systems across multiple states—our legacy is one of thoughtful, hands-on involvement.
This history has taught us the value of long-term thinking. It has shown us that success isn’t measured only by the scale of a project, but by how well it serves the people who depend on it. Our teams live and work in the same communities as our clients. That regional knowledge informs every project, whether we’re improving road safety, planning for sustainable growth, or delivering data-driven solutions with geospatial technology.
While we’re proud of this recognition, we see it as a shared achievement. It belongs to our clients, our partners, and our employees—past and present—whose commitment and collaboration make our work possible. It’s also a reminder that our story is still unfolding, shaped every day by new challenges, new ideas, and new opportunities, upheld by a shared vision that meets our legacy.
