CeS.TRA d.o.o. - Traffic

Services

Most countries experience increasing traffic and congestion problems on their road networks due to increasing mobility and economic activity and the lack of sufficient resources for road network development and maintenance. Road authorities often need to prioritise resources, and, at the same time, provide the best possible service. The objective is to avoid traffic delays, reduce accident risks, limit the environmental impact and achieve equal access for all road users.

This dilemma calls for CeS.TRA competence: innovative transport planning. CeS.TRA provides consultancy services on the design of traffic installations, road accident analysis, road safety plans, intelligent transport system (ITS), public transport and research and development to local authorities, cities, countries and road authorities.

Our services

Transport modelling

Computerised transport models are important tools for estimating traffic movement and its impact on the environment. Traffic flow simulations can be used to optimise traffic flows and capacity. We use state-of-the art modelling programmes VISUM and VISSIM.

What we do:

Establish, operate and maintain transport models
Calculate the economic and environmental impact of traffic
Develop models for both individual and public transport systems
Traffic flow simulation
Models to analyse congestion

Transport Planning and traffic engineering

A road network must accommodate traffic without major delays with a low risk of accidents, minimal environmental impact and safe access/segregation to all road users/pedestrians respectively. We identify problem areas, define objectives and prioritise and present results in a user-friendly way. Our experience has been built up through many years of contributing to a wide range of traffic planning and engineering assignments.

What we do:

Urban and rural roads
Traffic calming/safety
Cycle traffic
Parking open spaces and design for pedestrians
Parking facilities
Bus and railway terminals

Intelligent transport system – ITS

ITS increase road safety, traffic flow and levels of traffic information. We are involved in all phases of ITS projects from analysis, planning, specification, preparation, supervision and testing to evaluation and supervision of operation and maintenance. We deliver coherent solutions designed to integrate existing and planned technical, organisational and administrative systems.

What we do:

Strategic traffic management
Dynamic route guidance
Park and ride systems
Intelligent public transport terminals
Passenger information systems
Electronic ticketing and payment system
Road safety

Road safety

Prevention is always better than cure when it comes to accidents. Improving road safety means fewer fatalities and injuries, reducing costs for road authorities and society in general and improving safety for citizens. We carry out all phases, from research and analyses to action plans and implementation of physical measures on the road.

What we do:

Road safety plans and policies
Road safety audit and review
Accident statistics
Impact assessment of measures
Accident analysis
Information and campaigns
Safe bicycling

Railway planning

We have extensive knowledge of all aspects of the railway industry from planning, through design, procurement, construction to operation and management. We understand the complexity created by technical and economic constraints and the impact on stakeholders. Our unique strength is the combination of planning expertise with design expertise in railways and roads. Our clients benefit from this through a clear assessment of projects during the early phases and the development of comprehensive risk mitigation strategies.

What we do:

Planning of railway systems
Feasibility studies
Tendering of construction, maintenance and operation of railway systems
Organisational and financial analysis
Evaluations and legal/institutional analysis
Technical due diligence

Transport Economics

We perform a range of analysis and assessments of the economic situation and changes in infrastructure networks, services and charge regimes. These comprise all transport types, modes, passenger types and freight.

What we do:

Feasibility studies
Financial analyses
Cost-Benefit analyses
Valuation of external costs and benefits
Demand analysis
