Traffic Engineering

Civil Engineering Consulting Services, Inc. (CECS) uses state-of-the-art traffic engineering techniques to design roadways for the safe and efficient movement of people and goods. Project types have ranged from the analysis and design of major interchanges to small intersection improvements. Our extensive traffic engineering experience includes traffic signal warrant and timing studies, traffic signal plan preparation, crash analyses, interchange justification reports, and interchange modification reports. We are proficient with both SYNCHRO and HCS software and conduct all studies following the guidelines in FHWA’s Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices and SCDOT’s Signal Design Manual.
