Traffic Planning for Vehicle Access: Cost-Saving Design Case Study

Traffic Planning Consultants (TPC) was engaged by a developer facing a significant cost barrier due to previous advice on vehicle access arrangements. The proposed solution from another consultant carried a high five-figure price tag, threatening the feasibility of the project. Upon review, TPC identified a much simpler and more cost-effective alternative that achieved the same outcome for under 5% of the originally quoted cost.
