About The Role

Role Overview

Lead traffic engineering and transport planning tasks for major infrastructure projects, with a strong focus on Dubai RTA-compliant Temporary Traffic Management (TTM), diversions, and traffic staging, alongside permanent traffic impact assessments (TIA), junction analysis, access planning, and traffic signage/road markings coordination. The role will support design development, authority approvals, and construction-phase traffic management in close coordination with highways, utilities, and construction teams.

Key Responsibilities

Lead delivery of Traffic Impact Assessments (TIA) and supporting technical studies for road and transport infrastructure projects (greenfield and brownfield).
Develop and manage TTM / work zone traffic management deliverables, including:

Diversion plans, detour layouts, staging/phasing plans, lane closure schemes, and construction access/egress arrangements
Temporary signage and road marking plans, traffic control devices, safety barriers, and pedestrian management (where applicable)
Methodology narratives, risk assessments, and sequencing aligned with construction methodology and site constraints

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.

What do we need from you

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.

What's in it for you

Software

Traffic analysis / TIA: any combination of PTV VISSIM, Aimsun, SIDRA Intersection, Synchro/SimTraffic, HCS (Highway Capacity Software).
