Halswell Road is part of SH 75 through Christchurch, with Transit NZ intending to signalise the intersection. Christchurch City Council tasked ViaStrada with peer reviewing the design by Transit’s consultant.
ViaStrada was engaged by Christchurch City Council to improve the traffic management on Riccarton Road. Together with 
Local residents were concerned at the level of road safety along Swanns Road and at intersecting side roads. The project involved an examination of the safety concerns and an overall analysis of traffic volumes, speeds and crashes.
Andrew Macbeth (then working for MWH New Zealand Ltd) was hired to develop a concept for Creyke Rd, one of the boundary streets for the University of Canterbury.
