Rahyaft Andisheh Farda Consulting Engineers, since 2001: transport planning, traffic engineering, roads, rail and airports, with one aim — better transport, cleaner travel, fewer crashes and safer people.
Grade 1 in traffic and transport; grade 3 in roads, urban planning, rail, airports and passive defence.
Three simple models from Rahyaft's daily work: move the number and see what it does to a junction, a corridor and a person crossing.
Change the main road's share of green: the queues grow or shrink before you, and delay follows Webster's formula.
The corridor's trips stay the same; as the bus share rises, cars thin out and travel time and emissions fall.
Someone steps onto the crossing 32 m ahead. At what speed does the driver stop in time? Reaction 1.5 s, braking on dry asphalt.
The models are simplified, for illustration; a real study uses counts and a calibrated model.
How we work
Every Rahyaft design starts with a count and is tested on a model before it is built.
A simulated sample junction, not real data.
Six familiar places in our cities, seen from one spot: as they are, and as traffic engineering and street design rebuild them. Drag the handle.


The site has closed the footway and sent people into the road. A covered walkway, apart from the traffic and clearly signed, gives them their way back.
