We have teamed with Haregu on multiple complex urban transportation projects for several clients.  Haregu is responsive and has met project deadlines and budgets efficiently. She is a good communicator and we look forward to working with her again on the next transportation project!

NEA Client Metro HomesNW

I worked with Haregu Nemariam Engineering on multiple occasions. Their work has been very professional, timely and reasonably priced. One of the projects was a complex appeal to the city code and the report they provided allowed us to move forward quickly. I have every intention of using Haregu Nemariam Engineering for my next project requiring traffic related studies or reports.

Dean R. Moon, P.E. | Washington State Department of Transportation

NEA Client OBEC

Haregu has been very professional and worked to deliver a complex federal aid transportation project as part of our team over a three year design development period. The project required intense periods of design work followed by periods of no activity as decisions were made and additional construction funding acquired. Through the entire process, I appreciated Nemariam Engineers & Associates ability to adapt to the challenging schedule, exercise sound judgement, and deliver the work under budget.
