• Produce AM and PM peak base models in SIDRA and calibrate to existing conditions;
• Identify potential improvement options;
• Model the improvement options in SIDRA (AM and PM) to determine effectiveness and any additional works that may be needed;
• Produce reports outlining findings and recommendations;
• Liaise and contact the client throughout the project
