Traffic Surveys & Monitoring
Accurate Traffic Data Collection Services Across Gisborne, Hawke’s Bay & the Eastern Bay of Plenty
Reliable transport data is essential for effective traffic engineering, planning, and infrastructure decision-making. Engineering Outcomes provides professional traffic surveys and monitoring services for developers, councils, consultants, schools, and government organisations throughout Gisborne, Hawke’s Bay, and the eastern Bay of Plenty.
We use modern traffic monitoring methods and equipment to collect accurate traffic, pedestrian, cyclist, and parking data that supports transport assessments, planning studies, infrastructure upgrades, and resource consent applications.
Our Traffic Survey & Monitoring Services
Traffic Counts & Monitoring
We undertake traffic counting and monitoring for a wide range of projects and environments, including urban roads, rural roads, intersections, schools, commercial areas, and development sites.
Traffic counts can help assess:
- Existing traffic volumes
- Peak hour activity
- Vehicle classifications (types and sizes)
- Development traffic impacts
- Future infrastructure requirements
Digital Video Traffic Surveys
Digital video monitoring allows traffic movements to be reviewed and analysed accurately and efficiently. Video-based surveys are particularly useful for:
- Turning counts
- Complex traffic movements
- Pedestrian and/or cyclist activity monitoring
- Behavioural observations
- Parking area sizing and/or management
Pedestrian & Cyclist Counts
Understanding active transport movements is increasingly important for transport planning and infrastructure design.
We provide pedestrian and cyclist surveys to support:
- Shared path planning
- School travel planning
- Public space improvements
- Desire lines and associated safety
Vehicle Speed Measurement
Vehicle speed data is important for road safety assessments, access design, and traffic calming investigations.
We undertake vehicle speed surveys as input to:
- Sight distance assessment
- Safe-system thresholds
- Speed limit compliance and/or suitability
Parking Surveys
Parking surveys help determine how parking is being used and whether future parking demand can be accommodated effectively.
Our parking surveys inform:
- Parking occupancy
- Parking duration and/or turnover rates
- Demand patterns across days, weeks or longer
- Future parking requirements
Why Accurate Traffic Data Matters
Accurate transport data provides the foundation for informed decision-making. It helps ensure that transport assessments, infrastructure upgrades, and development planning are based on real-world conditions rather than assumptions.
Engineering Outcomes delivers reliable and professionally managed traffic surveys that support practical and defensible transport outcomes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are traffic surveys important?
Traffic surveys provide accurate data that supports transport assessments, road safety reviews, infrastructure planning, and resource consent applications. They often support reduced standards or conclusions that existing transport infrastructure is adequate despite the additional development traffic.
What types of traffic counts do you provide?
We provide traffic volume counts, turning movement counts, pedestrian and cyclist counts, speed surveys and parking surveys.
Can surveys be completed during peak periods?
Yes. Surveys can be scheduled during peak traffic periods, school times, weekends, or specific operational conditions depending on project requirements.
Do you provide surveys for rural roads?
Yes. We undertake traffic monitoring and speed surveys across both urban and rural environments.
How do you count the traffic
We use digital video monitoring for most of our counts because they provides myriad information that other methods cannot. We also carry out conventional counts, using tube counters, where detailed data is not necessary.
What areas do you service?
We provide traffic survey and monitoring services throughout Gisborne, Hawke’s Bay, and the eastern Bay of Plenty.
