Design Traffic and Traffic Impact Study for the Non-traffic Engineer

If you work with traffic engineers or transportation planners as part of a project team, then this course is for you! Learn what inputs the traffic professionals need to produce traffic studies, and what kinds of data they can provide on a project, all while learning how to coordinate projects more smoothly. This course will explain land use, access, and ‘build out year’ information that a traffic engineer needs in order to do a site impact study for a new development – and what the effects will be if any of that information changes during the study.
