Course Overview
A one-day course covering the principles of design and good practice, with practical examples and workshops to reinforce key learning points for the design of Priority Junctions and Development Accesses.
Important Notes:
1. The design sessions include good practice guidance but not AutoCAD training.
2. There are ARCADY sessions which include guidance on interpreting the model outputs and how the main input factors affect the results. They do not include a demonstration of the software. Training on the ARCADY is available from TRL, who own and license the software.
