What is it and why do I need it?
What is a Swept Path Analysis and Why do I need one, I hear you ask?
Well, a Swept Path Analysis effectively acts as a simulation and calculation to determine how vehicles will move around the roads surrounding your site. The software is backed by a library of various vehicle types and sizes, meaning examiners can carefully assess the potential scenarios.
So different Vehicles require different turning circles and all this needs to be considered in a swept path analysis.

Required to receive a Permit
Before council can issue a permit, they’ll ask for the type and size of larger vehicles requiring access to the site, and will request proof of safe manoeuvres and this is where a swept path analysis is required. WeTraffix assists with these turning templates, allowing them to be overlaid on top of a feature survey or existing conditions aerial photography.
