Queue Surveys: keeping people moving
Understanding traffic behaviour and reasons for queuing requires reliable data collected at the right place and at the right time.
We can manage queue surveys at any type and size of junction and we’ll work with you to create the best set-up for the timescale of the survey and the type of data you need. We typically use either video surveys or manual classified counts and can put a joint video and manual team together for complex or challenging queue issues.
This ability to mix and match means that we can provide a cost-effective, tailored solution that allows you to put the survey in place quickly and easily.
