777 TRL has seen significant growth in its software sales and consultant services to the Canadian market over the past 12 months.

In order to continue its support to this important growth area it has joined the Transport Association of Canada (TAC) with members of TRL’s traffic and software team supporting its participation by attending the TAC Annual Conference and Exhibition in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in late September.

Gavin Jackman, TRL’s Head of Traffic and Software said: “During the last 12 months we have seen a growing demand from customers in Canada for our products and services. Joining TAC will enable us to reach many more customers, provide additional support and demonstrate our commitment to this local market.”

TRL has seen significant growth and uptake of its Roundabout Design and Analysis program, with many consultancies and municipalities purchasing licences.

Earlier this year, TRL undertook an innovative and ground-breaking project in St John’s, Nova Scotia in partnership with MRC, one of Canada’s leading transportation and engineering consultancies. MRC was undertaking the implementation of the St John’s Cycling Master Plan, which had identified approximately 75km of bicycle facilities in the district.

Using a modified methodology of CERS (Cycling Environment Review System), tailored to Canadian design standards and needs, TRL played a key role in the development of safe, coherent and successful cycling networks, by providing independent assessments of various proposed priority routes.
