Transportation Planning

Transportation Demand Management (TDM)
The Boulevard Transportation Group team possesses considerable expertise in the emerging field of trip management. Our services in this area include providing guidance and facilitation to municipalities, agencies, and corporations endeavouring to reduce the number of vehicle trips their offices generate, and developing programs, incentives, and design recommendations that encourage commuters to use alternative modes of transportation.

Parking Management
Small towns, and large urban centres alike, are responding to parking scarcity in their downtown cores and spillover problems in neighbouring residential areas. The cost of building more parking spaces is becoming increasingly prohibitive as land values and construction costs rise. Each community faces its own set of problems and must develop a strategy of solutions that is unique. Our team specialises in parking economics and the development of comprehensive and appropriate parking strategies that are informed by extensive community consultation and consensus building initiatives.

Modelling and Forecasting
The Boulevard Transportation Group traffic team utilizes leading edge technology, such as up to date TModel2, VISSUM and EMME|2 network analysis techniques, to simulate transportation patterns and identify future traffic challenges.

Traffic Calming
Boulevard Transportation Group works with local governments and community groups to address the negative effects of traffic in neighbourhoods. We strive to design and implement appropriate traffic calming devices that are supported by all stakeholders.

Safety and Security
Boulevard Transportation Group staff have been involved in the development of the latest traffic safety principles and work to ensure that up to date safety analysis hold paramount importance in any work. Team members are also trained in personal security audit techniques, human factors, and ensuring that designs consider the perspective of vulnerable members of society.

Traffic Assessments
Unchecked traffic growth can negatively impact economic development opportunities. Our team offers strategic recommendations that will reduce these negative impacts while ensuring that commercial activity remains vibrant.
