Feasibility Assessment - Consult a Traffic Engineer?

Consulting a traffic engineer during a feasibility stage assessment may not be the first thought that comes to your mind. Traffic engineering services such as Traffic Impact Assessments, Parking Demand Assessments, Traffic Management Plans or Road Safety Audits are commonly sought in detailed design or planning stages of a project.

Traffic engineers are not typically consulted until something goes wrong or until some document specifies that a traffic engineer must be hired. However, RedSquare Traffic believes this mindset is not always right.

Traffic Engineer Expertise – Feasibility Stage Assessment

Traffic engineers can add value in very early stages of a project by:

Maximising land-use opportunities by re-jigging parking, footpaths, internal roads or access points.
Coming up with innovative transport and parking related solutions such as car stackers that would save costs which could end up being the difference of a ‘go vs no go’ decision outcome.
Being the bridge that connects the development in consideration with transport network related objectives and future plans.
Being the expert opinion that represents you in vital discussions with relevant authorities.
