To compliment and enhance our
technical offerings in Transportation Planning, Transit Planning, Parking
Planning and Traffic Engineering we also offer significant experience in
the following areas: Expert Witness Testimony:
A sound decision-making process for land use
developments and transportation projects requires that decision makers are
well informed of the range of different alternatives and their
implications. In forums such as Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) hearings,
the testimony of transportation experts is often critical to the outcome
of the proceedings. Public Consultation:
Our transportation planners believe that the
planning process is just as important as the recommendations themselves in
developing practical solutions that also achieve community and political
support.
GIS Applications:
Over the last decade spatially-based data
has become more mainstream in all aspects of transportation planning and
traffic engineering. Our philosophy with respect to technology allows us
to make use of GIS information and tools in many unique and varied forms.
Transportation Noise Assessments:
Traffic noise is recognized world wide
as contributing to the general deterioration of the urban environment.
As a result of increasing traffic volumes and higher levels of noise,
public concerns have led to the establishment of standards,
guidelines and procedures to address and mitigate noise impacts in
the land use and transportation planning processes.
Support Services:
Paradigm recognizes that our clients
must meet the challenge of achieving "more with less". Constrained
budgets and staff resources frequently create periods where in-house
resources are unable to respond quickly and adequately to public or
political issues.
