Traffic Project - From Idea to Construction

Overview:

Introduction:

Cities are expanding across the developed world, and this is followed by an increase in traffic. Humans are movers by nature, therefore how quickly we can travel or how much time we waste in traffic might affect how much we enjoy our daily lives. Because the level of mobility is also essential to many other issues we care about, it is crucial to employ technological expertise as well as an awareness of the economic, political, and social variables in traffic planning. Traffic needs to be improved if we want to better our lives. The first step in solving a traffic problem is to plan, manage, and create a traffic project.

This training course, "Traffic Project - From Idea to Construction!," is focused on planning, managing, and designing traffic in traffic projects for current or developing rural and urban areas. This is intended to outline the delegates' issues and potential fixes for some of the traffic issues, including time travel, network connectivity, route optimization on long-distance routes, and city congestion, among others.

Course Objectives:

At the end of this course the participants will be able to: 

• How to map out the country's road traffic route
• Recognize the fundamentals of road planning and design.
• design traffic signaling that is both horizontal and vertical
• Create simulations of traffic
• Learn about additional traffic management strategies used throughout the world that they can successfully use.

Targeted Audience:

• Urban Planners
• Architects involved in Urban Planning and Design
• Project Managers
• Traffic and Transport Engineers
• Strategic Development Personnel in Government
• Engineering Technologist and Project Managers
