DCE were appointed by Ghar-nata Consultant Engineers to conduct a Traffic Impact Study (TIS) for a souk develop-ment in Al Wakrah, Qatar.
A detailed development plan review process was carried out to check access width, parking layout, internal / external vehicle and pedestrian circulation, sight distance, road safety, drop off/pick up and service vehicle provisions.
Following TIS guidelines developed by the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MOTC), traffic was generated, distributed and assigned to the road network using PTV VISUM. A traffic impact assessment was done at key access roads and neighbouring junctions using PTV VISSIM SIDRA and Synchro software.
