Transport models are valuable tools to facilitate discussion and negotiation around the future impacts of transport developments and network initiatives.
There needs to be a good rationale for investing in a transport model. Success of Beca’s transport modelling practice is based around an approach to “not just model for modelling’s sake”.
Working with our clients’ software preferences, Beca runs a wide range of modelling software. This software choice will not determine the advice that is provided and our modellers are trained in understanding how each modelling package is designed in order to provide our clients with effective advice. Beca operate strategic network models such as CUBE Voyager, Emme-3, SATURN, TRACKS as well as microscopic simulation in tools including PARAMICS, AIMSUN, and VISSIM.
Beca’s modelling team works internationally and, in addition to our core modelling projects, we are especially well regarded for the work we’ve done in economic evaluation, public transport integration, airport developments and toll modelling.
