How the process works

1

Send the site address, plans, work dates and traffic or access concern.

2

CiviEase checks the road environment, access points and likely authority questions.

3

The right survey, assessment, CAR, TMP or traffic management pathway is scoped.

4

Documents or site support are prepared in a way the project team can act on.

5

Follow-through support can continue into temporary traffic management or equipment hire where suitable.

Approval depends on the proposal, site constraints, district plan rules, road controlling authority requirements, available information and council assessment.

Frequently asked questions

No. A traffic impact assessment usually supports consent or planning assessment. A TMP explains temporary traffic management for works.

Need traffic impact assessment support?

Traffic assessment is stronger when it answers the actual site question instead of overloading council with generic detail. Send us the site address, plans, council letter, RFI or work details and we will help identify the next step.
