Transport studies
for residential, office and retail developments

Large developments need an assessment of their impact on the transport network. We forecast traffic, assess road network capacity and develop traffic management proposals.
Why do developers need transport modelling?
A transport study helps solve engineering problems, informs project finances and gives future residents confidence in the development.
We bring proven transport solutions from large residential districts and master-planned communities to your project.
We model traffic from new housing and retail developments and design access points and connections to the city’s road network.
Modelling can show whether a proposal will keep traffic moving, giving sales teams evidence they can use to market a residential or office development.
Good access and fewer delays can improve a development’s market position, attract investment and raise the value per square metre.
Project economics and returns
Lessons from large residential developments
Avoiding costly road upgrades
Evidence for marketing
Sales and investment growth
A formal study gives developers evidence to address concerns from prospective buyers and neighbours that a new development will cause congestion.
We design layouts that are easy to navigate and safe for drivers and pedestrians within and around the development.
Accurate estimates of trip generation and road capacity help prevent severe congestion and identify bottlenecks around the site.
Community concerns and trust
Evidence for discussions with future residents
Improving road safety
Reducing congestion
Project stages and deliverables
We use measured data and strategic transport models at each stage.

Case study: Reducing traffic loads by 35%
How modelling prevents congestion and supports sales
This project shows how an engineering study can turn a potentially congested junction into a more accessible and attractive place for future residents.
  • 35% reduction in traffic load (confirmed by the model).
  • The sales team can show prospective buyers what the developer has done to improve access and convenience.
  • The development connects safely and efficiently to the city’s road network.

Outcome for the developer:

The problem
(no-intervention scenario):
The model showed that the existing road network would be unable to handle traffic once the development opened. Severe bottlenecks on key roads, including Baidibek Bi Avenue and Tulemetov Street, would block access to and from the development, affecting its reputation and sales.
Using microsimulation, we identified 12 targeted infrastructure measuresthat avoid a costly rebuild of the entire district. They include:
  • Install traffic signals with dedicated sections for U-turns.
  • Prohibit conflicting left turns and U-turns and add dedicated storage lanes.
  • Reconfigure complex junctions to increase capacity.
  • Add local access roads to distribute traffic.
  • Introduce one-way streets and safe parking areas near schools and other community facilities.
UTD’s solution
(coordinated improvements):
Analysis and support through approval
We help clients take the project through each stage of transport plan approval.
Working with public authorities:
We attend meetings with city officials and relevant agencies to explain the proposed measures and the evidence behind them.
Public consultations:
We provide data and visual materials to support discussions with local residents.
Presentations and documentation:
We prepare clear presentation materials and support the formal approval process.
Responding to changes:
We update proposals promptly when the client or city provides new information.

Comprehensive transport impact assessment

UTD provides transport modelling for projects of all sizes, from individual sites to master-planned communities and large development areas. We use mathematical models to study housing, office and retail developments. We estimate how many trips a development will generate and attract and build an origin–destination matrix to assess its effect on road capacity during peak hours.

Our specialists carry out microsimulation and strategic modelling. We develop traffic management plans, optimise signal timings and model how vehicles enter and leave car parks. Clients receive a formal report from an accredited research organisation to support presentations to city authorities, statutory review and discussions with investors and future residents.
