Traffic and Highway Installation Guidelines
(For Consultants Engaged in Roadway Designs)
The purpose of these supplemental guidelines is to provide engineering design consultants working on city roadway designs additional design information that is not provided for in the Manual of Engineering Standards and Specifications or other publications. These guidelines have been developed by the Traffic and Transportation section of Engineering and Public Works Department specifically for use in the City of Nanaimo. They provide the designer with guidance on design criteria currently being used by the City. These documents are a supplement to the Geometric Design Guidelines, Pedestrian Crossing Control Manual and the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices as published by the Transportation Association of Canada.
Any questions on these guidelines should be addressed to Chris Winkel, Traffic/Transportation Specialist at:
