How to read, interpret and understand a traffic report

The traffic implications of development are one of the major issues that have to be considered by State and local governments at the strategic level and applicants and decision makers at the development assessment level.

Dealing with traffic impacts often requires co-operation at all levels of government and can have significant financial consequences.

The importance of undertaking traffic impact assessment at both the planning and development assessment stages cannot be underestimated.

Alice will take us through the various processes and procedures that are followed by experienced traffic engineers when undertaking traffic impact assessment, including:

• the statutory regime
• traffic impact assessment methodology
• relevant assessment codes
• the structure of a traffic impact report
• who is “qualified” to do the work
• how to brief a consultant
• what to look for in a completed traffic impact report
• what traffic engineers wished planners knew
