Traffic Engineering Software (TES)

Description:

Traffic Engineering Software (TES) is a suite of software analysis tools and data management tools that integrate three different types of information: collision data, traffic counts, and infrastructure data into one complete package that can be easily accessible in a tabular form and/or displayed automatically on a GIS map. It includes eight modules:

  • Collision Module.
  • Traffic Study Module.
  • Safety Module.
  • Sign Inventory Module.
  • Signal Inventory Module.
  • Infrastructure Module.
  • GIS Module.
  • Maintenance Module.

TES’ Safety Module provides safety analysis based on the Highway Safety Manual. This module can help determine the most high-risk intersections and road segments within the road network.

TES uses safety performance functions (SPF) to determine relationships between traffic volume, collisions, and road geometry for different types of locations within the municipality’s road network. Using this information, TES can evaluate all sites to determine their Potential for Safety Improvements (PSI) and overrepresentation of crash types

TES provides a flexible structure and users can update its databases using data available in other software packages. For example, it can interface with AASHTOWare Safety Analyst or IHSDM.
