Expert Traffic Signal Designs

Traffic signals are designed to make sure safe and systematic flow of traffic. A proper traffic signal design can help in protecting vehicles and pedestrians at busy junction and can also help in reducing the severity and occurrence of accidents between vehicles entering intersections.  MJWells & Associates provides Traffic Signal Design services to all the public and private agencies. Also provides a variety range of traffic signal services to real estate developers.

Advantages of having Traffic Signals Design

·         Increase in roadways and crossroads facility.

·         Allocate right-of-way.

·         Reduces the severity and consistency of certain accident types.

·         Provide a systematic movement of traffic.

·         Make easy useful and well-organized progression of traffic along an arterial street network.

·         Interrupt heavy traffics at certain amount of intervals to allow vehicles and pedestrian traffic to cross the road.

TRAFFIC ENGINEERING AND SERVICES

Traffic engineering is a phase of engineering that uses techniques to attain the secure, efficient and convenient movement of people and goods on roadways. It deals with the following terms to achieve the goals: geometry of road, sidewalks and crosswalks, designing and operating traffic signal modes, planning, terminals, connection of streets and highways and their corresponding networks.  Traffic engineering deals with the functional working of transportation.

Traffic engineering projects also includes designing of traffic control devices and their modification, including traffic signals and signs.  Engineers, also considerate traffic safety by investigating the locations individually with the crash rates. Then, they develop some countermeasures according to the location and helps in reducing the crash.  Traffic management is done by two ways; they are short term and long term. Short term management mainly focuses on preparation of traffic control plans, which also includes detour plans for pedestrian and vehicular traffics. Long-term pays attention on estimating the impacts of commercial developments on traffic patterns.  Dynamic elements such as sensors for the measurements of traffic flow, inter-connectivity, traffic management guidance system etc are being introduced into traffic management.

Traffic flow and speed sensors are also used in order to detect problem and alert the operators, so that the cause of congestion can be determined and measures can be taken accordingly to minimize the problem. One of its best features is introduction of traffic cameras and message signs.  These systems collectively are called as Intelligent Transportation System.

Also the introduction of ITS (Intelligent Transportation System) has helped a lot in controlling and monitoring the traffic. Besides these, the management of the public roads and neighborhood has also become very easy to handle.
