To fulfill our mission, Neollect’s team implemented a multi-staged methodological approach:
- used the inputs of the resort’s master plan to generate preliminary forecasts of guests, visitors and workforce demand expected on a peak day per year over a span of 10 years;
- designed the key trips (origins - destinations) of each client group and determined the respective modal splits;
- identified the most appropriate routes to be used considering the available road and rail networks and calculated the peak daily and hourly load in passenger car units (PCUs) for each road segment across the network;
- compared demand versus capacity of the existing transport network and services, assessing their ability to handle background and the additional demand generated by the resort;
- proposed recommendations for upgrading the existing transport infrastructure and services and addressing all identified bottlenecks.
Background and challenge
Our client, a visionary private developer planning to leverage Public-Private Partnership model for the development of a resort in an idyllic lakeside area, entrusted Neollect with the task of developing a complete transport master plan. Combining our client’s innovative mindset, Government's support for infrastructure development and our problem-solving competencies, a robust collaboration was forged. The goal was to capitalize on the unparalleled natural beauty of the scenery and construct hotels, apartments, and glamping facilities for a total capacity of more than 5,600 rooms, and projected annual inflows of 460,000 guests and visitors.
Approach and recommendations
Impact
Our work delivered the following concepts:
- outlined three different options for managing traffic and facilitating access to the resort, by building junctions and roundabouts;
- recommended new direct bus routes connecting the resort to nearby airports and rail stations and additional services for accessing nearby points of interest;
- designed an internal bus network with 10 stops to serve the various functions of the resort;
- made provisions for more than 7 km of pedestrians sidewalks and cycle paths;
- recommended the location and outlined the parameters for the construction of two helipads that would facilitate access to the resort in case of emergency;
- planned parking facilities with a total capacity of 1.700 spaces;
- proposed traffic management measures, including installation of speed cameras, traffic lights and optimizing intersections;
- suggested setting up an EV vehicle charging infrastructure network and developed its specifications.
