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.
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.
Town of Bay Roberts Transportation Master Plan
The Town of Bay Roberts on the Bay de Verde Peninsula, Newfoundland, engaged Harbourside Transportation Consultants to prepare a comprehensive Transportation Master Plan (TMP). Growth in traffic volumes on the Conception Bay Highway had resulted in safety concerns from both residents and business owners with respect to property access. The scope of work for the TMP was divided into three tasks with multiple subtasks: understanding traffic and transportation systems, assessment of present and future conditions, and creating a system improvement plan.
Mount Pearl Integrated Transportation Study Phase 1B
One year following Phase 1A, the City of Mount Pearl engaged Harbourside Transportation Consultants to complete the second phase of the Integrated Transportation Study, with a goal of examining the immediate and long-term transportation infrastructure needs in and around the city. Phase 1B was intended to collect and update the information that would be required to complete the Integrated Transportation Plan, and all data points had to be easily interpreted by others.
Mount Pearl Integrated Transportation Study Phase 1A
The City of Mount Pearl, Newfoundland, and surrounding areas have seen significant growth in development, population and infrastructure in recent years, resulting in altered traffic patterns. This growth was anticipated to impact intersections and roadways within the city. Considering this, the City of Mount Pearl engaged Harbourside Transportation Consultants to complete an integrated Transportation Study, with a goal of examining the immediate and long-term transportation infrastructure needs in and around the city.
