Our mission is to promote traffic safety in all our operations starting from strategic surveys to detailed plans. The foundation for our operation is comprehensive safety thinking based on vision zero according to which nobody should die or get seriously injured in traffic.

Our operations and competences cover also all the elds of traditional traffic safety work. In export projects we have diffused the thinking model for safe mobility worldwide. Our operations cover: Traffic safety surveys and research

Equipment In addition to actual planning software we have at our disposal special traffic safety software such as LiituTipa, management software for the lifecycle of traffic safety measures Litu, software for analysing traffic accidents Koululiitu, software for evaluation of traffic safety of school routes TARVA, software for estimation of traffic safety effects of road improvements

SAfE MOBILITY The best way to improve traffic safety is to include safety in all our activity and aim at steering mobility towards using of sustainable modes of transport

Our experts in traffic safety and mobility management have competence in strategic surveys, research and different planning phases of traffic, road and regional planning. By managing of safe mobility we aim at inuencing peoples habits of moving in order to make use of sustainable traffic forms such as public transport, walking or cycling even more popular. It is also possible to plan use of passenger cars in a new way e.g. route choices, car pools, parking policy of organisations or sharing of cars. The starting point for the work is to map the mobility needs people have and the possibilities that exist.

Mobility management Traffic safety audits (inc. highway plans, town plans, regional plans road and street network and town planning) Traffic safety planning for communities, municipalities, and regions as well as for corporations and industrial areas Traffic calming in urban areas Education, instruction, communication, and interaction Safe mobility for school children Design for all / accessibility Accident analysis and black spot studies Calculations for traffic safety effects of road improvements

In addition to these we have traffic simulation programs (e.g. Vissim, Synchro, Paramics), which can be used for evaluating of traffic-related and safety effects of different planning solutions. The newest simulation program Vissim is especially suitable for simulating of bicycle and pedestrian traffic.
