Services
Esquire Engineering UK Ltd offers a wide variety of services for collecting traffic data for private sector and local authorities.
Traffic data collection and analysis is performed to:
- Provide a basis for planning and design of traffic facilities.
- Facilitate traffic flow by outlining the specifications for traffic control equipment including signs, signals, pavement markings and pedestrian crossings.
- Evaluate the effects of road safety measures and other changes made for traffic by conducting “before and after” traffic studies, and
- Determine the basic characteristics and general laws of traffic behaviour.
Parking Stress Surveys
Our experienced parking surveyors follow the industry standard approach (“Lambeth Methodology”) to measure and calculate the available authorised parking spaces around a development or site. Surveys are carried out at the most heavily used times to assess the number of vehicles parked in the area. Parking Stress is expressed as a percentage and is the recognised approach which highlight the level of parking availability in the agreed area.
Intersection Turning Movement Counts
Our traffic engineers collect data to find the number of vehicles that cross a particular intersection at a given point of time. This information is necessary to plan and install traffic management devices, design parking areas and modifications to intersection layouts.
Parking Occupancy Surveys
To help avoid parking issues in and around development areas, our engineers’ study and predict the parking demands during peak and off-peak periods. They study different aspects of the project, such as the development site’s area, the occupancy rates for the dwellings in and around the site, and the type of area under study.
Pedestrian and Cycle Counts
Pedestrian and cycle count studies focus on determining the flow of pedestrians and cycle users that make up a substantial percentage of the overall traffic. This data can be used to plan safety measures for commuters.
Additionally, we offer specialised studies to meet specific client needs. These include
- Behavioral Surveys
- Roadside Interviews
- Cycle Surveys
- Questionnaire/Postcard Distribution
- Parking Studies
- Pedestrian Counts
- Passenger Movement Counts
- PV2 Surveys
- Public Consultations and Audits
- Queue Length Studiesv
- Journey Time Surveys
- Saturation Flow Studies
- Bus Stop Dwell Time Surveys
- Taxi Surveys
- Speed Surveys, and
