We provide a full range of services, from traffic management plans to the design of municipal roads, tailored to meet the unique needs of each project. Our team is committed to delivering solutions that enhance mobility, safety, and accessibility.
A well-crafted Traffic Management Plan (TMP) is essential for managing traffic flow and minimizing disruptions during construction projects or special events. We analyze existing traffic patterns, assess potential impacts, and develop comprehensive TMPs that include traffic diversions, temporary traffic control measures, signage, and alternative routing. Our plans prioritize safety and efficiency, ensuring that traffic continues to move smoothly while minimizing inconvenience for motorists, pedestrians, and surrounding communities.
Our Construction Management Plans (CMP) are designed to ensure that construction projects are carried out safely and efficiently, with minimal disruption to traffic. We create detailed CMPs that outline strategies for traffic management, stakeholder coordination, and communication with the public. By addressing potential traffic challenges before construction begins, we help clients maintain smooth traffic flow, enhance safety, and ensure that projects are completed on time and within budget.
The design of municipal roads requires a careful balance between functionality, safety, and community needs. Our expertise in road design allows us to create road networks that are efficient, safe, and sustainable. We consider factors such as traffic volume, road classification, geometric design, and environmental impact to develop road designs that enhance mobility and accessibility. Our designs are tailored to meet the specific needs of the community, ensuring long-term functionality and safety for all users.
Intersections are critical points in any transportation network, and their design must accommodate various traffic volumes, vehicle types, and pedestrian activities. Our Intersection Design services adhere to the guidelines set by the Transportation Association of Canada (TAC) to ensure that intersections are safe, efficient, and capable of handling current and future traffic demands. We focus on optimizing traffic signal timing, improving geometric design, and incorporating pedestrian-friendly features to create intersections that minimize congestion and enhance safety.
Functional Plans provide the foundation for successful transportation projects by outlining the key elements needed to achieve project goals. We develop detailed functional plans that consider transportation objectives, land use, projected traffic volumes, and environmental factors. Our plans serve as a roadmap for project development, helping stakeholders make informed decisions and anticipate challenges. By providing clear, actionable guidance, our functional plans ensure that transportation systems are efficient, sustainable, and aligned with community needs.
Effective Access Design is crucial for ensuring that transportation facilities, developments, and properties are accessible and safe for all users. We analyze traffic patterns, visibility requirements, and multimodal transportation needs to design access points that facilitate smooth ingress and egress. Our designs minimize conflicts between vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists, ensuring that access points are safe, efficient, and user-friendly. Whether for a new development or an existing facility, our Access Design services enhance connectivity and improve overall traffic flow.
We provide expertise in identifying property requirements for road projects, ensuring proper land acquisition and alignment for road expansions or new developments. We assess right-of-way needs, easements, and land use considerations to determine property requirements and facilitate the smooth implementation of transportation projects. Our team works closely with stakeholders, landowners, and legal entities to ensure compliance with regulations and streamline the property acquisition process.
Our professional engineering services specialize in comprehensive Pedestrian Crossover (PXO) design, meticulously developing Type B, C, and D crossovers in full compliance with Ontario Traffic Manual (OTM) Book 15 standards and Ontario Provincial Standard Drawings (OPSDs). We deliver precise, safety-focused designs that incorporate critical elements such as regulatory signage, pavement markings, pedestrian-activated lighting, and strategic traffic management considerations. Our approach ensures each PXO is tailored to specific municipal requirements, prioritizing pedestrian safety and seamless traffic flow while maintaining rigorous engineering standards.
Our firm offers expert services in the Design of Intersection Pedestrian Signals (IPS), delivering comprehensive solutions that enhance pedestrian safety and traffic management at key intersections. We specialize in creating tailored IPS designs that incorporate state-of-the-art signal technology, optimal timing sequences, and clear visual cues for both pedestrians and motorists. Our designs strictly adhere to local and national standards, ensuring seamless integration with existing traffic systems while prioritizing accessibility and efficiency. From initial assessment to final implementation, we provide end-to-end IPS design services that improve urban mobility and pedestrian experience.
We specialize in the Design of Signalized Intersections, offering comprehensive engineering solutions that optimize traffic flow and enhance safety for all road users. We provide expert services in designing and implementing advanced traffic signal systems, incorporating state-of-the-art technology and intelligent traffic management strategies. Our designs carefully consider factors such as traffic volume, pedestrian needs, and local regulations to create efficient, safe, and adaptable signalized intersections. From initial analysis to final implementation, we ensure each design meets the highest standards of functionality, compliance, and sustainability, contributing to smoother urban mobility and improved road safety.
We excel in the Modernization of Existing Signalized Intersections, offering cutting-edge solutions to enhance traffic efficiency and safety. We specialize in upgrading outdated infrastructure with state-of-the-art signal technology, adaptive control systems, and smart traffic management tools. Our comprehensive approach includes reassessing traffic patterns, optimizing signal timing, implementing advanced detection systems, and integrating pedestrian-friendly features. We ensure minimal disruption during upgrades while maximizing intersection performance, reducing congestion, and improving overall road user experience. Our modernization services not only bring intersections up to current standards but also prepare them for future traffic demands and technological advancements.
We specialize in the design and implementation of Raised Crosswalks, providing comprehensive engineering solutions that enhance pedestrian safety and traffic calming. We develop meticulously engineered raised crosswalk designs that strategically reduce vehicle speeds, improve pedestrian visibility, and create clear, defined crossing areas. Our approach integrates precise geometric design, appropriate vertical geometry, and compliant accessibility features to ensure optimal functionality. We carefully consider local traffic conditions, pedestrian volumes, and municipal standards to create raised crosswalks that effectively mitigate traffic risks while maintaining smooth traffic flow and meeting all relevant engineering and accessibility guidelines.
We provide comprehensive Safety Review services for intersections and corridors, adhering to Ontario Traffic Manual (OTM) Books 5, 6, 11, 15, and 18 standards. Our expert team conducts thorough assessments, including analysis of collision history, speed studies, and evaluations of existing signage placement and conditions. We meticulously review pavement markings and assess sightlines to identify potential hazards. Based on these detailed examinations, we develop tailored recommendations for countermeasures designed to significantly enhance safety for all road users. Our holistic approach ensures that each safety review delivers actionable insights to improve traffic flow and reduce risks across the transportation network.
