Transport and economics

• Investigation and modelling of transport flows;
• Traffic condition surveys (flow dynamics, speed, capacity, accidents, bottlenecks);
• Traffic engineering solutions;
• Pavement deterioration surveys and pavement distress identification;
• Pavement deterioration modelling;
• Design of asphalt pavement structures.

We are licensed to use Emme – travel demand forecasting system for urban, regional, and national transportation planning. The most advanced modellers in the industry trust in Emme’s credibility to model the world’s most complex transport systems. Emme offers efficient, robust algorithms that have earned a reputation as the gold standard in transport modelling. INRO pioneered the application of both equilibrium assignment and integrated multimodal assignment, and continues to develop innovative modelling technologies to meet the evolving needs of Emme users. Emme proved to be reliable and comprehensive tool for demand modelling as it was used in various street network development projects in Vilnius and in the masterplan of Kaunas region.

Our street and highway management solutions are based on the principles and mathematical models of the Worldwide known HDM system. It allows us to: manage road network development activities and program road works, estimate funding requirements and budget allocations, predict road network performance, carry out project appraisals and policy impact studies.

We model and forecast operating parameters of streets, roads and their intersections, consult on design and traffic control solutions with regard to improved capacity and safety.

We have effectively implemented national and EU ratified methodologies, such as: Guide to Cost-Benefit Analysis of Investment Projects, HEATCO – Harmonised European Approaches for Transport Costing and Project Assessment, Lithuanian Road Investment Guide, TARVA – Finnish Road Maintenance Measure Safety Impact Evaluation model.

In some cases our work was audited and approved by EC and their experts.
