Transportation

Swedish metropolitan areas such as Gothenburg and Stockholm offer some of the worlds most sophisticated and developed municipal public transport systems. Environmentally adapted multi-featured public transportation systems with high efficiency, low emission, low noise and low public planning impact are lead indicators from the Swedish programme. The successful planning and design skills from the Swedish experiences have brought Sweco transport engineers around the world performing their services.

With research, planning, and studies projects Sweco perform our skills in Intelligent Transportation Systems for governments, municipalities, trade and industry around the world. Experts within Infrastructure also perform risk and environmental analyses of road and railway projects as well as systems for road traffic management and road information, with the goal of making traffic safer and more effective. The design of roads, traffic lanes, intersections, transportation centres, and parking structures are completed in cooperation with planning and landscape architects, traffic and road planners, geo-technicians and design engineers.

Within the arena of ITS, advanced IT solutions are applied in order to effectively steer traffic and transportation in Sweden. Sweco provides services withihn Traffic Management, Sustainable Mobility, In-vehicle IT/IS, Payment Systems

In addition, Sweco participates in European collaborative efforts to implement long-term sustainable transportation systems. With the help of ITS, Sweco can improve traffic safety, decrease congestion and improve traffic flow, and minimize any negative effects on the local environment.

Sweco evaluates the effects of new traffic solutions on both the micro and macro levels with the help of calculation and simulation tools such as VISSIM, CAPCAL, VISUM, and SAMPERS.
