In Progress

Projects are considered to be in progress once sufficient funding has been secured to cover all costs associated with the conduct of the project.

The projects currently in progress are listed below and information about each project is available by clicking on its title. 

Once a project is completed, it is transitioned into a publication, and made available through TAC's Bookstore

Chapter 8 – Access of TAC’s Geometric Design Guide for Canadian Roads (GDG) provides a framework for the review and approval of access proposals, with the goal of ensuring safe and effective vehicle access. Chapter 8 was not updated with other GDG...

Newly constructed or rehabilitated bridges are frequently surfaced with hot mix asphalt (HMA); however, achieving high quality asphalt mats on bridges presents many challenges.  To prevent damage to the bridge, vibratory compaction is usually not permitted...

In urban areas, most fatal and serious injury motor vehicle collisions occur on arterial roadways. Because the risk of death and serious injury in collisions is minimized at lower speeds, a significant opportunity for improved safety lies in the design and...

The Guide to Bridge Hydraulics, Second Edition (2001) addresses hydraulic and hydrologic design issues related to bridge infrastructure, and is referenced in the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code and other publications. In view of the urgent need to adapt to...

Transportation pricing is a powerful motivator behind the choices individuals make, particularly in urban contexts where more travel options exist. Canada’s wide variety of current or envisioned transportation pricing tools includes parking fees,...

This project will develop a major national guide to complement the Geometric Design Guide for Canadian Roads (GDG) and the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Canada (MUTCDC). The guide will focus on engineering aspects while referencing the multi-...

Shared micromobility services involve shared-use fleets of small, fully or partially human-powered vehicles such as bikes, e-bikes and e-scooters. Shared micromobility services are either operating or being planned in cities and regions across Canada, reflecting...

Practitioners wishing to provide safe and effective traffic signal timing for all road users increasingly face dilemmas at traffic signal-controlled intersections when high-capacity active transportation facilities are deployed. As an example, bidirectional...
