Projects
WestConnex Projects
Services: Operational Modelling, Traffic Management, Road and Intersection Feasibility Design
TMA has worked with various consortia on the successful tendering and delivery of WestConnex Projects. We have managed and delivered traffic engineering and transport modelling expertise for the development of efficient road networks and interchanges that shape Sydney’s transport future.
We use sophisticated modelling software; VISSIM, AIMSUN, SIDRA and LinSig supported with global standards in traffic engineering– to support the development of efficient designs and develop traffic management measures that reduce the impact of construction works.

Canberra Light Rail
Services: Operation Modelling, Traffic Signal Design, SCATSIM Modelling
We used VISSIM along with VAP vehicle actuated programming language to develop microsimulation models of the Canberra Light Rail corridor while replicating SCATS signal operation. These models can identify both the effects of congestion at future network constraints, as well as assessing the proposed light rail operation. In addition, TMA designed signal logic and submitted controller operations sheets and completed the Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) of each controller personality for operation with light rail.
We utilised an existing model developed by a third party and worked with the client to update signal coding methodology and light rail operation to reflect latest designs and as-built configuration.

Pyrmont Traffic Improvement
Services: Operation Modelling, Options Testing, Road Network Optimisation, Transport Planning, Feasibility Design, Road Network Upgrades
The Pyrmont Traffic Improvement Project required evaluating several road network improvement schemes in Pyrmont and surrounds. A number of future options were assessed utilising future traffic demands at 2021 and 2031.
A comprehensive options testing process was undertaken where various gyratory movements and alternate access to Western Distributor ramp locations were considered to minimise traffic conflicts at critical intersections. Network modelling was undertaken in SIDRA Network and calibration/validation based on RMS Traffic Modelling Guidelines. SCATS VS and signal data was used to derive representative peak period signal timing, and intersection feasibility design undertaken to optimise intersection operations within constrained geometric footprints.
Future-year network demands were derived from growth obtained from the (WestConnex Road Traffic Model) WRTM strategic model and disaggregated to network zoning for operational modelling utilising a basic microsimulation model as an assignment tool.
TMA worked with the RMS project team to optimise designs and to greatly reduce the number of conflicts at intersections, improving safety and performance for road users and pedestrians.
