Traffic engineering advice for Melbourne and across Victoria

Modus is a Melbourne-based traffic engineering consultancy supporting development projects throughout Victoria. Our team works across dense inner-urban areas, established suburbs, and regional centres, helping project teams navigate traffic, access, parking, and safety requirements from early design through to construction.

We understand the challenges of designing within Melbourne’s uniquely constrained urban environment. From basement access and servicing layouts to pedestrian, cyclist, and public transport interfaces, our advice reflects how sites operate in practice, not just how they appear on plan.

We regularly assist with:

Development Applications and Traffic Impact Assessments
Access and Parking Layout Design
Swept Path Assessments
Traffic Management Plans (TMP)
Construction Traffic Management Plans (CTMP)
Waste Management Plans
Intersection Performance
Green Travel Plans

Fast Turnarounds, Clear Communication, Proven Quality

Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA)

Traffic Impact Assessments prepared by Melbourne-based traffic engineers for development projects across Victoria.

Our assessments address local planning requirements and state-controlled road considerations to support efficient approval pathways.

Access, parking and network performance analysis
Local and state road authority alignment
Practical, approval-ready mitigation

Swept Path Analysis

Swept path analysis to confirm vehicle movements work on constrained sites.

We assess cars, service vehicles, waste trucks, and heavy vehicles against basements, ramps, loading docks, and tight urban access conditions.

Basement access and servicing layouts
Waste, service and heavy vehicle movements
Reduced redesign during approvals

Traffic Management Plans (TMP) & CTMPs

Traffic Management Plans and Construction Traffic Management Plans for projects across Victoria.

We plan access, staging, deliveries, and pedestrian management to suit live traffic environments during construction and operation

Temporary access and delivery planning
Pedestrian and cyclist risk management
Local and state approval alignment

Road Safety Audits (RSA)

Independent Road Safety Audits for planning, design, and construction stages.

We identify safety risks early and provide practical recommendations aligned with authority expectations and site conditions.

Planning, design and construction stage audits
Clear, implementable recommendations
Support for compliance and duty of care

Traffic and Pedestrian Safety Assessment

Traffic and pedestrian safety assessments for operational sites and construction environments.

We review interaction risks and recommend proportionate controls that improve safety without disrupting site operations.

Vehicle, plant and pedestrian interaction review and report
Practical & implementable site-specific controls
Support for compliance and duty of care

Waste Management Plans (WMP)

Waste Management Plans prepared to meet council requirements and real servicing constraints.

We design bin storage, access, and collection arrangements that ensure safe operation for waste vehicles and site users.

Council-compliant waste strategies
Safe truck access and manoeuvring
Reduced approval friction

Common questions from developers, planners, and designers seeking approval-ready traffic advice

What does a traffic engineer do for development approvals in Melbourne?

Traffic engineers assess how a development will operate within the surrounding road network. This typically includes vehicle access, parking layout, traffic generation, pedestrian and cyclist safety, and intersection performance. For Melbourne projects, this advice supports planning approvals by addressing local planning scheme requirements and state-controlled road considerations where applicable.

Do you only work in Melbourne, or across Victoria?

Our team is Melbourne-based, but we deliver traffic engineering services across Victoria. We support projects in inner-urban areas, established suburbs, and regional centres, working within both local government planning frameworks and state road authority requirements.

When is a Traffic Impact Assessment required for a Melbourne project?

A Traffic Impact Assessment is typically required when a development increases traffic volumes or changes access arrangements. The trigger depends on the scale, land use, and surrounding road network. Requirements are assessed on a project-by-project basis against the applicable planning controls and referral pathways.

Can you assist early in design, before plans are finalised?

Yes. Early engagement allows traffic considerations such as access locations, basement design, parking numbers, and servicing arrangements to be tested before plans are locked in. This often reduces redesign, delays, and additional requests during the approval process.

Do you work with both council and state road authorities?

Yes. Depending on the site and road network, projects may require consideration of both local planning requirements and state-controlled roads. We prepare advice and documentation that responds to the relevant authority processes for each project.
