Introduction
New land use/infrastructure development may adversely affect existing transportation system and network. A detailed Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) is, therefore, crucial to identify these potentially negative effects so proper mitigation actions can be proposed and carried out. Thus, the main objective of the Seminar is to provide the participants with greater understanding on the role and importance of traffic impact assessment, with case study in Korea.
