    From the age of the afro, flares and platforms to the age of….hmmm, some things change little in 35 years. (Yes, flares are back!)

    October, 1976, Traffic Design Group was a one-man-band, established by present-day chairman Peter McCombs. Thirty-five years later, we have 80 staff operating from eight offices around New Zealand. Over that time, we’ve seen New Zealand’s development and growth progress through oil companies of the 70s, the commercial property boom of the 80s, the retail centres of the 90s, and alternative power generation in the 2000s.

    What hasn’t changed is our commitment to excellence. Today, our expertise is still growing and expanding and our people continue to break new ground in a constantly evolving field. Now, as then, whether it’s large or small, simple or complex, your projects present the opportunity for us to create remarkable journeys. Thanks for the support and we look forward to continuing the adventure in 2012.

    In this issue:
    • Research driving freight efficiency
    • Land development steps ahead
    • Development savings in 3D design
    • ITS increasingly key to clients’ bottom line
    • Auckland Airport benefits from transportation innovation
