1. Transport Planning Expertise

• Traffic Flow Analysis: Understanding of traffic patterns and the ability to use traffic modeling software to analyze congestion, intersections, and overall traffic flow.
• Transportation System Design: Expertise in designing transportation networks that optimize road, rail, public transit, and cycling systems. This includes determining optimal routes, intersections, and transit hubs.
• Multi-Modal Transport: Knowledge of integrated transportation systems that involve multiple modes of travel, such as cars, buses, trains, bicycles, and walking.
• Land Use and Transport Integration: Ability to align transport planning with urban development, ensuring that transportation infrastructure supports sustainable growth and is well-connected to key areas.

2. Transport Modelling and Analysis Tools

• Traffic Simulation Software: Proficiency with tools like VISSIM, SYNCHRO, PARAMICS, or other traffic simulation software to model traffic scenarios, test infrastructure designs, and predict traffic behavior.
• Transport Demand Modeling: Knowledge of software like SATURN, TransCAD, or VISUM for forecasting travel demand, planning transit routes, and understanding the needs of different transportation modes.
• Geographic Information Systems (GIS): Experience with GIS software (e.g., ArcGIS, QGIS) to map transport systems, analyze spatial data, and assist in planning and decision-making processes.

3. Regulatory Knowledge and Policy Development

• Transportation Policies: Familiarity with local, national, and international transport policies, regulations, and standards, such as Vision Zero for road safety, Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs), and Low Emission Zones (LEZs).
• Environmental and Safety Regulations: Understanding of environmental impact assessments (EIAs) and the integration of safety standards, especially in the design and planning of roadways, bridges, and other infrastructure.
• Government Guidelines: Knowledge of the relevant local authorities' planning and transport guidelines, including public transport strategies, road safety regulations, and sustainable transport practices.

4. Urban Mobility and Sustainability

• Sustainable Transport Systems: Expertise in designing sustainable, energy-efficient transport systems, including electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure, bike lanes, pedestrian-friendly environments, and green transportation policies.
• Public Transport Planning: Understanding of mass transit systems such as buses, subways, and light rail, with the ability to plan routes, schedules, and capacity management.
• Smart City Solutions: Experience with technology and innovations that improve transport efficiency, such as intelligent transport systems (ITS), autonomous vehicles (AVs), and mobility as a service (MaaS).

5. Project Management

• Leadership and Team Management: Leading multi-disciplinary teams in the design and implementation of transport projects, ensuring that all members are effectively coordinated and aligned with the project's objectives.
• Budgeting and Scheduling: Managing budgets, timelines, and resources for transport planning projects to ensure projects are completed on time, within budget, and in compliance with the required specifications.
