Traffic Surveys and Transport Studies
African Development Bank (2025)
Project Title: Traffic Surveys along Nairobi BRT Line 4
Lead Consultant: LOGIT Consulting Inc. and ITDP
Challenge: The implementation of Nairobi’s BRT Line 4 required in-depth traffic data to inform intersection designs and signal plans along one of the city’s busiest corridors.
Solution: GLINCE conducted comprehensive traffic surveys at 14 strategic intersections using high-definition video capture to record both motorised and non-motorised traffic volumes. The insights are now driving design optimisation for enhanced flow, safety, and efficiency along the BRT corridor.
TradeMark Africa (TMA) (2024)
Project Title: Repeat Assessment of Transport and Trade Performance along the Northern and Central Corridors
Consortium: UNeed.IT (Italy) / Tertiary Consulting Engineers (Kenya)
Challenge: Accurate data was needed to evaluate regional logistics performance across East Africa’s key trade corridors.
Solution: GLINCE carried out traffic counts at 33 sites and origin-destination surveys at 25 locations across Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Burundi. We also engaged logistics stakeholders in interviews, enriching the study with practical insights that inform corridor optimisation.
Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP) (2024)
Project Title: Traffic Count Survey on Woodvale Grove
Lead Consultant: Glince Ltd
Challenge: Nairobi City County, with support from ITDP and UN-Habitat, sought to redesign Woodvale Grove and adjacent streets to promote walking and cycling, enhance economic activity, and improve urban quality of life. The project required comprehensive traffic data to inform safe, inclusive, and efficient street design.
Solution: Glince Ltd conducted detailed traffic studies, including motorised and non-motorised traffic volume counts, parking studies, and data analysis. We also developed a microscopic traffic model of the corridor, integrating diverse user flows. This evidence-based input is now shaping the transformation of Woodvale Grove into a vibrant, pedestrian- and cyclist-friendly space.
