TRAFFIC SURVEYS

Public Transport Surveys

Covering the whole of the UK, Paul Castle Associates has fully trained and highly experienced operatives who can undertake any type of Traffic Surveys either by Observation or by using the latest technology to streamline the process and expedite data to Clients quickly and accurately – We here at Paul Castle Associates know time is a major factor when appointing a Transport Surveying Company and hence we reflect this in the methodology we deploy.

Non-Motorised User Surveys

Paul Castle Associates has sourced Thermal Image and PIR sensor technology to undertake covert NMU surveys, especially over the long term to ensure the results of any surveys are not influenced by surveyors or CCTV units being inconspicuous.

Manual Classified Movement Counts & Queue Length Assessment

Manual traffic surveys can be taken by our highly-trained enumerators. They are used in areas where installing a camera may not be possible or plausible. They’re great for when data is required over a short period of time.

Pedestrian & Cycle Surveys

Pedestrian and cycle traffic surveys cover footfall surveys, pedestrian crossing surveys including delay and counts, cycle path usage, desire lane surveys and interview surveys.

This type of traffic survey is used for justifying works such as installing pedestrian crossings or widening footpaths.

Automatic Traffic Count (ATC)

Our Team of Operatives has over 100 units available to be deployed anywhere in the UK on single or multiple Installations and are very experienced at picking suitable and achievable locations to record the data as accurately as possible.

Journey Time Surveys

These surveys can be undertaken via different methods dependent on the Clients requirements and budgets:

• Floating Car Method
• GPS Tracking
• Real Time Video Recording

Radar Speed Gun Surveys

Our team of dedicated specialists undertake these surveys in accordance with the latest guidelines – CA 185 “Vehicle Speed Measurement on All Purpose Roads”.

Video Surveys

Paul Castle Associates has invested heavily in the latest “streaming” and 5G technology to enable the personnel on site to determine and utilise the most cost effective and efficient method for data recording, storage and delivery. Using an App, any member of the team can continually check on the apparatus, continuity and to ensure in the event of any unforeseen incidents that any data loss is kept to an absolute minimum if circumstances beyond our control occur.

Vehicle Registration Surveys (ANPR)

Utilising the latest ANPR Technology & Software, O&D Matrices can be derived for small “Rat Running” exercises or large scale Town Centre Travel Pattern Surveys. Equally, they can be deployed at Retail Parks or other Parking related sites to determine CP Usage and Duration of Stay.
