The modern transport system is more than moving cars from A to B in the most efficient way possible. At PTSL our traffic and transportation engineering services consider the whole range of transport modes; walking and cycling, public transport, freight and private vehicles.
We have extensive experience in developing transportation solutions to challenges faced by our clients including:
- Improving accessibility for pedestrians, such as intersections improvements and pedestrian crossing facilities.
- Providing for cyclists.
- Enhancing bus journey times and reliability through bus priority measures including bus lanes, transit lanes, queue jump facilities and intersection improvements.
- Improving freight movements.
- Safety and capacity improvements for all modes, including private vehicles.
Traffic and transportation engineering projects use a range of skills and techniques to achieve successful outcomes. These include capacity assessment using intersection modelling (such as SIDRA), crash analysis, intersection design, traffic management and traffic calming.
We specialise in concept and scheme design. Projects undertaken include the investigation into intersection safety and operation (including traffic signals, and roundabouts), pedestrian improvements (footpaths, refuge islands, zebra crossings, signalised crossings), priority lanes (freight and bus priority lanes), bus priority (bus lanes, transit lanes, bus gates and queue jump facilities), traffic calming (raised tables, road humps, Swedish tables).
