At Arterials, our engineering and design services bridge the gap between visionary planning and implementable infrastructure. We provide technically sound, context-sensitive solutions that improve the way people move through cities and regions — whether it’s a new intersection design, site circulation plan, or roadway retrofit.
We support public agencies, private developers, and consulting teams by integrating traffic engineering principles, design standards, and modeling outputs into actionable project deliverables.
Roadway & Intersection Design
We evaluate and design urban and suburban corridors that balance mobility, safety, and multimodal access.
- Preliminary geometric design for arterials, collectors, and local roads
- Intersection layout and turning movement analysis
- Signalization studies and coordination plans
- Traffic calming, roundabouts, and channelization
- Complete streets and pedestrian safety upgrades
Tools used: AutoCAD, AutoTurn, Synchro, SIDRA, Arcady, HCM
Site Access & Circulation Plans
We help developers and architects ensure functional, regulation-compliant access and circulation for all users within a site.
- Driveway placement and spacing
- On-site vehicle circulation for cars, trucks, service, and emergency vehicles
- Parking and loading area design
- Accessibility and active transportation integration
- Sightline evaluations and zoning compliance checks
Tools used: AutoTurn, zoning review, visibility analysis
Traffic Engineering Studies
We offer expert-level analysis to optimize network operations and support infrastructure approvals.
- Capacity analysis and level-of-service evaluations
- Signal timing, phasing, and coordination
- Queue and delay analysis
- Signal warrant assessments
- Traffic safety audits and collision diagnostics
Tools used: Synchro, SimTraffic, HCS, VISSIM
Implementation Support & Review
We help ensure design intent is carried through to execution and compliance:
- Peer review of engineering submissions for municipalities and agencies.
- Technical documentation for funding, approvals, and public consultation.
- Constructability and staging input for early design phases.
Technical Standards We Work With
We design and evaluate in alignment with:
- Highway Capacity Manual (HCM)
- AASHTO / TAC Guidelines
- Provincial/Municipal Design Manuals
- Zoning By-laws & Accessibility Codes
Built to Move
Whether supporting a planning study, site development, or detailed design, Arterials delivers engineering that’s not only functional — but responsive to policy, safety, and community needs.
