Project Tasks
Jeddah Municipality has launched the project (Preparing urban plans for slums that are not subject to the removal decision) for the areas located east of Jeddah. This project is considered one of the important projects of the municipality, as it seeks to seek the assistance of one of the approved and specialized consulting offices, with the aim of planning transportation in the various project areas in line with the expected urban planning for these areas. Accordingly, studying transportation and traffic for these areas is vital, as it studies and evaluates the current status of the road network in terms of various traffic impacts, identifying critical locations for network elements, and working to evaluate them using various performance indicators, in addition to evaluating the proposed road network and its ability to accommodate the traffic volumes generated as a result of the expected urban and demographic changes according to road changes, land uses, and various activities.
Study objectives
- Review all aspects of the transportation model, computer movement, data and technical reports.
- Determine current traffic during peak periods and assess traffic on surrounding roads within the scope of the project.
- Verify the ability of the transportation system in the study area to accommodate the increase in vehicle volumes in the event of the construction and operation of the project under study.
- Estimate the capacity and operational indicators of road network links and intersections around the facility before and after the construction of the facility and address any negative impacts that may appear after the construction of the project as much as possible.
- Estimate the number of waiting areas required to serve the project’s visitors and users.
Suggest any improvements required to mitigate the negative impacts on traffic that may result from the construction of the project.
