Our services

  • Traffic data recording
  • Video traffic monitoring to assess dynamic traffic behaviour
  • Assessment of the efficiency of signal-controlled junctions and junctions without signals using calculation procedures that comply with the guidelines for designing road traffic facilities (HBS)
  • Efficiency optimisation for various types of junction
  • Clear and comprehensible presentation of complex traffic engineering results

Traffic quality as a determining factor

The quality of traffic at junctions, intersection points and handling facilities affects not only travel times and accident rates but also the emissions situation, particularly in inner city road networks.

The number of lanes in the immediate area of junctions, permitted speeds, mix of vehicles, number of pedestrians crossing, type of junction and priority regulations are particularly important factors affecting traffic quality.

 

Traffic behaviour affects efficiency

Fundamentally, the efficiency of junctions is also affected by the behaviour of traffic participants, which in turn depends on factors such as the clarity of the junction’s design and the quality of the signage.

The video traffic analysis used by Praxl + Partner can provide valuable information about ways in which the efficiency of junctions can be improved by optimisation measures.
