During the development and assessment of a infrastructure projects a large amount of data analysis is generally carried out. Because of the technical nature of the results, it is often difficult to convey the information in a meaningful way to councillors and the public, particularly if the project involves new roading. This note describes a recent study in Hastings, New Zealand, where traditional transport planning and traffic network modelling has been combined with three dimensional roading design and three dimensional animation to present a visualisation of a new arterial, and the traffic movements that are forecast in twenty years time.
