AutoCAD being a computer aided design program is used for a number of applications like creating blue prints for buildings, bridges and roads. Considering this, using AutoCAD for traffic management plans seems like the logical option and opens up endless possibilities provided that the user knows how to use the software efficiently.
As the traffic management industry grows and evolves, more detailed and accurate Traffic Guidance Schemes (TGS`s) are in high demand. On some projects, it is a requirement that AutoCAD is used.
Upon completion of WTA’s AutoCad for Traffic Management course you will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to:
- Set up AutoCAD to your preferences
