Team Gushue Highway Interchange Study
Harbourside Transportation Consultants was retained by the Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Transportation and Works to complete a detailed traffic analysis on the Team Gushue Highway and the existing Pitts Memorial Drive and Robert E. Howlett Memorial Drive interchange. Work began with a review of past transportation planning documents, models, and traffic studies followed by stakeholder consultations to identify regional growth and development projections. The end goal was to develop alternatives for connecting these and ancillary roadways.
City of Corner Brook Traffic Signal Systems
The City of Corner Brook, Newfoundland, retained Harbourside Transportation Consultants in November of 2017 to complete a comprehensive evaluation of the city’s traffic signal systems. The systems consisted of fifteen signalized intersections and five signalized pedestrian crossings. The goal of the study was to document existing conditions at each traffic signal system and to recommend upgrades as required. This helped inform the city on next steps for modernizing roadways and improving accessibility throughout the city.
Portugal Cove – St. Philip’s Street Classification
Harbourside Transportation Consultants conducted a comprehensive traffic and roadway study in Portugal Cove, St. Philip’s, Newfoundland. The goal was to have Harbourside re-classify streets as necessary and create a new town map to illustrate the street reclassifications. The reclassification of streets in Portugal Cove, together with the previous traffic study and traffic calming policy, represents a modernization of the town’s transportation infrastructure.
Town of Portugal Cove – St. Philips Traffic Calming Policy
Harbourside was brought on as transportation engineers in 2016 to address traffic and pedestrian safety issues within the Town of Portugal Cove, St. Philips, Newfoundland. We developed a Traffic Calming Policy with the goal of assisting the Town of Portugal staff in managing traffic calming requests and addressing vehicular and pedestrian safety in a consistent manner. The proper application of the Traffic Calming Policy by town staff ensures that transportation throughout Portugal Cove is safer and more reliable.
