Traffic Planning for Hampton Downs: Motorsport Park Case Study

Traffic Planning Consultants (TPC) provided traffic engineering and transport planning services for the development of Hampton Downs Motorsport Park. The project focused on ensuring safe and efficient access, effective car parking arrangements, and seamless integration of pedestrian movement across the site to support both daily operations and large-scale events.

Summary

Project Overview

Client: Hampton Downs Motorsport Park
Location: North Waikato
Scope: Traffic planning and engineering for vehicle access, parking, and pedestrian integration
Challenges: Forecasting parking demand, managing event-related traffic, and coordinating approvals with local authorities and NZTA

Our Approach

Parking Demand and On-Site Assessment
TPC carried out detailed traffic and parking demand surveys to evaluate existing and future on-site parking needs. Our team analysed event-day and general-use scenarios to ensure adequate provision and circulation throughout the site.

Access Design and Impact Assessment
We designed vehicle access improvements to enhance safety and efficiency, and assessed the impact of traffic generated by the facility on the surrounding road network. These findings informed a comprehensive Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) submitted as part of the resource consent process.

Stakeholder Engagement
TPC liaised with the local authority and NZTA to address regulatory requirements and facilitate a smooth approval process, ensuring the development met national and regional transport standards.
