Markets

The Traffic Group, Inc. is committed to providing our clients with exceptional service and quality work as well as unsurpassed customer service. Over the years, we have enjoyed great relationships with a wide array of clients within the private and public sectors.

Education

We understand the uniqueness of schools as we have worked on them in numerous jurisdictions – providing traffic impact studies, signing and pavement marking plans, traffic signal plans, and school/site circulation and feasibility consultation.

Sports + Entertainment

The Traffic Group has studied the impacts of baseball stadiums, indoor basketball arenas, Formula 1 racing, and casinos. Each study has its own set of circumstances, metrics, and challenges, and no two venues – sports or entertainment – are alike.

We provide comprehensive traffic engineering and transportation planning project delivery for today’s challenging and evolving requirements of our government agencies throughout the United States including traffic data collection, traffic counts, traffic impact studies, traffic safety studies, Vision Zero studies, and traffic calming studies.

Healthcare

Hospitals and medical centers around the country looking to expand their facilites are faced with access, circulation, and ease of parking issues. We listen and respond with solutions that support and articulate each client’s vision while considering patients, families, medical staff and the surrounding community.

Office

There is nothing more common in land use than the construction and development of office parks. In the 1980s and 1990s, office parks with a sea of surface parking were commonplace. Now in the 2020s under COVID pandemic conditions, “times they are a changing.” The “new normal” has not yet been clearly defined, but it is clear that office development has changed and will continue to evolve over the next several years.

Residential

The types of residential developments are as diverse and diversified as the population of every major urban area throughout the United States. They include single family detached homes, townhouses, stacked townhouses, quads, walkup apartments, apartments that require elevators, high-rise residential developments, condominiums, assisted living communities, nursing homes, congregate care communities, etc. Each one of these land uses has different traffic generation and therefore a different impact on the local road system and parking needs and demands.

Retail

For the last 30 to 40 years, the parking demand for retail shopping centers centered around the amount of parking spaces, and local zoning laws required 4 to 5 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet for retail development. As a result of the 2020 COVID pandemic, retail development has changed dramatically. E-commerce shopping has grown substantially and delivery of groceries by various types of startups has also resulted in fewer trips to the typically anchored grocery shopping center.

Mixed-Use

The challenge with mixed-use developments is shared parking.The parking issue becomes critical and shared parking results is a different type of trip generation than what you might expect. It is our job to provide the minimal amount of parking with the maximum amount of comfort for all users within a mixed-use development.
