Merger results in expanded services.

As the new year rung in, Eschbacher Engineering, P.C. had a lot to celebrate. The 20-person transportation planning and traffic engineering firm based in Melville, New York joined forces with VHB Engineering, Surveying and Landscape Architecture, P.C. in Huntington Station, New York.

The merger of these two respected firms broadens each of their service offerings on Long Island. The new relationship--which enables each entity to provide clients with seamlessly integrated services--was something that everyone was excited about.

"This opportunity provides me and the Eschbacher team with the resources to begin offering our clients a wider range of expertly integrated services," said Bob Eschbacher, PE. "I'm confident that our clients will receive the same personal service and responsiveness, integrity and dedication that they have known over the past 20 years."

Over the years, Eschbacher Engineering built a reputation of professionalism, integrity and dedication among its public and private clients. From initial planning and feasibility studies, through design and construction inspection, Eschbacher provided transportation planning and traffic engineering services with high quality professional expertise.

The firm was made up of professionals that understand the broad spectrum of public reaction to major infrastructure projects, and working relationships with task forces comprised of widely varying viewpoints.

The merged entity is an affiliate of Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc. (VHB). With 17 offices from New Hampshire to Florida, VHB is a national leader in the delivery of integrated transportation, land development and environmental services.

Now 35 strong, Eschbacher VHB is one of the leading firms on Long Island, offering outstanding technical work and superior client service to clients in New York and throughout the nation.
