 BACKGROUND

• Achieve a healthy, walkable

and sustainable community
• Accommodate 5000 people
and jobs per km²
• Implement a minimum of
600 executive residential
housing units
 PROBLEM STATEMENT

• Engineering a method that accommodates the increasing traffic

volumes
• Failure to integrate non-motorized traffic to major intersection
 OBJECTIVES

• Assess the projected traffic volumes

• Produce a high level network analysis diagram
• Develop a street design to improve the vehicular traffic flow
• Develop a method of integrating non-motorized traffic
