Studying the roads, motorists, and vehicles characteristics would restrict traffic issues from

happening since it would identify the right and suitable measures to ensure the continuous flow of traffic.
Such as the identification of the roadway type, maybe concrete or asphalt, the type of vehicle, size, weight,
and design of the car that is usually occupying the road and lastly, the drivers who control the vehicle
wherein they should be physically, psychologically, and mentally able to ensure safety.

Determining the appropriate traffic equipment and control system devices are also part of transportation
engineering. This part is also crucial since these devices and signs serve as the speakers on roads that
give notice about the road situations ahead, provide directions to be followed, inform or supervise drivers,
and guarantee the proper functioning of road traffic. Hence the role of transport engineering on this matter
is necessary since it covers where the devices should be placed, what sizes they should be, what type of
device should be used, and regulates it so that the equipment and instruments are utilized accordingly.
