Transport Modelling and Evaluation

The interaction of different land uses creates travel demand. Our transport models are built to replicate this interaction and quantify travel demands. Our modelling skills are applied to numerous scenarios such as Strategic Road Network Analysis, Coordinated Signal System Assessment, Local Area Investigation, Microscopic Simulation of Detailed Traffic Systems, Infrastructure Needs and Multi-Modal Demand Forecasting.

Infrastructure Concept Development

Major transport infrastructure must be viewed holistically. Cardno Eppell Olsen helps clients make informed decisions in this area. We analyse traffic systems such as complex freeway interchanges and multi-modal arterials. We develop functional concepts at the early stages of the infrastructure planning process. With our assistance, clients see the big picture prior to making significant infrastructure commitments. Our team can develop and evaluate design alternatives for sub arterial, arterial, freeway and interchange systems. We consider geometric, operational and performance issues as well as multi-modal access, regional and corridor system needs.

Regional Transport Plans

Local and regional transport decisions affect networks at numerous levels and across many regions. Making the right decision is critical, as transport decisions can have both positive and negatives impacts. Consideration of land use, traffic growth, opportunities for public transport, travel demand management and the planning process are paramount to successful transport system planning.

Transport Policies

Cardno Eppell Olsen works closely with all levels of government to provide the framework for sound organisational and policy development through Development Assessment Guidelines, Parking Policy, Infrastructure Charging Plans, Mode Guidelines and Road and Freight Hierarchy Principles.
