Road Safety Audit Services

At Traffic Planning Consultants, we deliver comprehensive road safety audits and safe system assessments that go beyond compliance. Our focus is on identifying risks, improving transport safety performance, and supporting projects at every stage — from early design through to post-construction.

Our team has worked across urban and rural networks, providing safety input into residential developments, intersection upgrades, shared-use facilities, and major infrastructure projects. Whether it’s a Stage 1, 2, or 3 road safety audit, we ensure that safety issues are identified early and resolved efficiently — helping to reduce crash risks while optimising the functionality of your transport design.

Key features of our road safety audit services:

Fully compliant reports that meet Road Controlling Authority (RCA) and Waka Kotahi standards
Integration with traffic engineering design and transportation planning
Safe system assessments for expressways, arterials, cycleways, and mixed-use environments
Clear, actionable recommendations to support design refinement and delivery

We’ve audited some of New Zealand’s most significant infrastructure projects — including the Waterview Tunnel in Auckland, the Southern Motorway in Christchurch, and numerous multi-modal transport corridors that support pedestrian, cycling, and public transport access.

You can also explore projects like the:

Pokeno Subdivision Safety Audit — where we identified safety risks and improvement opportunities during Stage 3 of a residential development
Fort Street Shared Space and Mt Albert Town Centre — where safety considerations were critical to successful street reconfiguration

Our audits complement services such as temporary traffic management and workplace health and safety — providing a holistic view of risk across all modes and settings.

Whether you’re delivering a local intersection upgrade or a national-scale transport corridor, our team is here to provide reliable, independent, and cost-effective safety advice. Explore our full services or browse recent projects delivered to see the outcomes we help create.
