Traffic Modelling

After assisting with several other childcare centres for Kidicorp we were engaged to assist with a new site in Rotorua.  This involved helping the design team with the site design and parking layout, and preparing an impact assessment.  Access to the site was difficult as the site is located on the intersection of a narrow local road with limited visibility and a busy State Highway.  The site is now operating.

Our client had a challenging development problem - a block of undeveloped land in Kohimarama with relatively steep topography and constrained access and a goal of building a 200-unit apartment-style retirement village.

We were engaged by Waterside Business Centre to assist them in developing their land-holding in Mangere, Auckland.  This included an assessment of the best purpose of the land that involved extensive investigations and designs for developing the land as either an industrial business park or residential development. 

We subsequently undertook detailed traffic modelling, investigated intersection upgrading, assisted with subdivision design, produced an Integrated Transportation Assessment and presented evidence at a recent Plan Change hearing.

We were engaged by a group of landowners to assist in the development of their rural land on the western outskirts of Pukekohe.

McConnell Property partnered with Housing New Zealand to develop this 25ha block of land in Takanini to provide 450 homes and a secondary school.  McConnell Property engaged Wes Edwards Consulting to advise on the subdivision design and to assist in obtaining the necessary approvals.

This has involved the assessment of the proposed subdivision, evaluating the traffic impact on the surrounding area, considering access to public transport, and developing solutions for walking and cycling facilities.

The Pokeno Landowners Consortium (PLC) was progressing it's plans to treble the size of the Pokeno Village to a population of 5900 people with around 1800 jobs.

We were engaged to assist with Structure Planning which included studies into suitable options for crossing the North Island Main Trunk railway, key intersection modelling and design, the preparation of concept subdivision designs, and road design guidelines.
