Toll consultant 6278 HNTB Corporation has expanded its national toll leadership team by naming a new vice chair of its toll practice and a new director of toll technology consulting and hiring a toll market practice leader, all to advance its clients’ programs as the importance of tolling in the United States grows as a proven funding option for infrastructure.

Kevin Hoeflich, with more than 27 years’ industry experience, has joined HNTB as toll market practice leader, with primary focus on the east coast, focusing on toll client service, strategic planning, recruiting and growing the toll practice.

Industry veteran Gregory Le Frois has been promoted to the position of vice chair toll market sector. A vice president and HNTB Fellow with more than 34 years’ experience in planning, design, engineering, technology and operations for toll roads, toll bridges and priced managed lanes, Le Frois will focus on market growth, client relationships and brand awareness.

Stepping into Le Frois’s previous position, Walter Fagerlund has been named HNTB director of toll technology consulting, where he will direct HNTB’s national toll technology consulting practice, including a staff of almost twenty toll experts who provide advisory services to a variety of toll agencies Nationwide.

“HNTB believes our country is on the brink of a sizeable expansion of the toll market. As the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act enters its second and final year, the number of US highway and bridge projects eligible to use tolls continues to grow,” said Jim Ely, chair toll practice. “HNTB’s addition of Kevin Hoeflich, and the promotions of Gregory Le Frois and Walter Fagerlund will further solidify our combined portfolio of expertise and better align our services with needs of HNTB’s five geographic divisions.”
