Surveys & research
Targeted traffic, parking and movement surveys, data analysis and transport research supporting planning, policy and design decisions.
Evidence designed for the task
Good transport advice depends on data that is relevant, reliable and collected under representative conditions. TEF Consulting defines survey programmes around the decision being investigated rather than collecting information without a clear analytical purpose.
Survey planning and delivery
We can specify and coordinate traffic counts, parking occupancy and duration surveys, queue observations, travel time studies, pedestrian and cyclist counts, access observations and operational surveys. Survey timing, coverage and quality control requirements are documented before fieldwork begins.
Research and analysis
Our experience includes large scale traffic generation research and studies that compare observed behaviour across multiple land uses or sites. We examine the quality and comparability of source data, identify material patterns and explain how findings should and should not be applied.
Typical outputs
- Survey briefs, plans and data quality checks
- Traffic, parking and movement datasets
- Peak-period and operational analysis
- Traffic-generation and demand research
- Clear figures, tables and technical interpretation
- Evidence for planning, design, policy and investment decisions
Useful, traceable findings
Reports connect observations to the project question and retain a transparent path from source data to conclusion. This allows findings to be reviewed, reused appropriately and defended during assessment.
