Traffic Planning for Massey University Albany: Campus Growth and Transport Strategy Case Study

Traffic Planning Consultants (TPC) provided traffic engineering and transport planning support for a significant expansion of Massey University’s Albany campus. The project involved the extension of an existing building, construction of a new academic facility, and the provision of approximately 500 additional car parking spaces. A key element of the project included modifying internal campus circulation, accommodating service vehicle access, and relocating an existing public bus route.

Summary

ProjectOverview

Client: Massey University
Location: Albany, Auckland
Scope: Traffic engineering and transport planning for major tertiary campus expansion
Challenges: Managing increased travel demand, providing safe and efficient access for multiple user types, and relocating public transport services

Our Approach

Vehicle Access, Servicing, and Bus Routing
TPC designed vehicle access points and internal circulation for the expanded car park and service areas. We developed an alternative route for the on-campus public bus service, ensuring continued connectivity and minimal disruption to transit operations.

TDM Strategy and Consent Support
To manage travel behaviour and reduce private vehicle reliance, we prepared a Travel Demand Management (TDM) Plan alongside an Integrated Transport Assessment (ITA). These reports supported a successful non-notified Resource Consent outcome.

Key Outcomes

Delivered safe and functional access design for car parking and service vehicles
Developed a new public bus route to maintain campus connectivity
Prepared a TDM Plan to support sustainable transport outcomes
Supported non-notified consent through high-quality transport reporting
