2. Design transportation system including intersections and signals using traffic flow concepts, theories and principles including the four step modelling techniques.
3. Design and evaluate road pavements including maintenance strategies to ensure road safety and address the legal, economic and social implications of transportation systems and environmental issues associated roads and road design.
4. Apply road design standards, statistics, and probability concepts to analyse traffic flow data and transportation design.
