Sr .Traffic & Transportation Engineer

• Manage Dubai RTA coordination and approvals for TTM/diversions, including preparation of submission packages, responding to RTA comments, and aligning with RTA requirements, standards, and typical details.
• Perform junction and corridor analysis (existing and forecast), including capacity, LOS, queues, delays, and operational performance under base and construction-stage scenarios.
• Undertake traffic surveys scoping and interpretation: turning counts, mid-block counts, travel time runs, parking demand, pedestrian counts, heavy vehicle counts; develop calibrated base models where required.
• Develop traffic modelling and scenario testing for:

• Permanent scheme impacts (new intersections, access points, ramp terminals, weaving sections)
• Construction-stage impacts (temporary lane drops, detours, signal timing changes, partial closures)
• Mitigation measures (signal optimization, geometry refinements, temporary signal plans, reversible lanes where permissible)

• Prepare signage and road marking design inputs and reviews, including:

• Permanent guide signs, regulatory/warning signs, VMS interface needs (if applicable), and pavement marking strategy
• Temporary signage for work zones/diversions in accordance with RTA expectations and safety practice

• Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams: highways geometric design, utilities, structures, construction planning, safety, and stakeholder interfaces (developers, local authorities, police/ambulance access requirements where applicable).
• Provide construction support: review contractor TTM submissions, respond to RFIs, participate in site coordination meetings, and support implementation readiness checks.
• Prepare deliverables and governance documentation: design reports, TIA reports, concept/IFC drawings, phasing narratives, traffic management plans, and authority submission trackers.

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering / Transportation Engineering (Master’s preferred).
• 10+ years of experience in traffic engineering and transport planning with substantial exposure to:

• Dubai RTA processes for TTM/diversions and authority submissions (mandatory)
• Traffic impact assessments for major developments and infrastructure corridors
• Work zone traffic management, staging, and safe diversion planning on live roads

• Strong technical understanding of:

• Signalized/unsignalized intersection operations, corridor performance, access management
• Temporary traffic controls, pedestrian management, safety barriers, and staging constraints
• Traffic signage and pavement markings principles (temporary and permanent)

• Experience producing coordinated deliverables suitable for authority review and construction implementation, with strong QA/QC discipline.
• Preferable: exposure to Middle East standards and stakeholder management for constrained urban construction environments.

Software

• Traffic analysis / TIA: any combination of PTV VISSIM, Aimsun, SIDRA Intersection, Synchro/SimTraffic, HCS (Highway Capacity Software).
• Junction / geometry checks: AutoTURN / Vehicle Tracking, basic swept path capability, parking and access evaluation tools.
• CAD / drawings: AutoCAD (mandatory); Civil 3D preferred for geometry coordination; Bluebeam for markups.
• GIS / data: QGIS / ArcGIS preferred; strong Excel capability for survey reduction and reporting.
• Document management / collaboration: ACC or equivalent CDE platforms (preferred)).
