Design & safety

We work with local and national clients to solve design problems involving intersections (including those with traffic signals and roundabouts) and corridors (including speed management), through to concept design, safety audits and peer review. We can provide analysis and provision for public transport, and sustainable active transport (walking and cycling). We offer a range of services to help property developers, architects, project managers and councils with transport aspects of development projects.
