Roadmap¶
Where TrafficCAD is today, and what is coming next. Each item links to the guide page that documents it. Dates are deliberately absent: work ships when it is right, not on a calendar.
Shipped¶
Site modeling¶
- [x] Auto Site — one click turns live map data into editable CAD layers: roads, sidewalks, buildings, and parking over high-resolution aerial imagery
- [x] Parametric roads carrying width, lane counts, posted speed, and markings, split per block at every intersection
- [x] Junction geometry — curb-return fillets, kerb calibration, corner joins, and continuation seams
- [x] Lane editing — variable per-lane widths, turn bays with storage and taper dimensions, two-way left-turn lanes, parking lanes, and inset bike lanes
- [x] Divided carriageways detected and combined into a single road with a median, and separable again
- [x] Traffic signs and stop/yield/signal control imported from map data
Drafting¶
- [x] Markup tools — lines, polylines, rectangles, polygons, circles, clouds, text, arrows, and areas with per-tool style defaults and a shared colour palette
- [x] Measurements on markups — length, area, and per-segment readouts that print with the shape
- [x] Sketch layers — create, rename, merge, lock, hide, reorder, with full undo and project persistence
- [x] Snap grid and snapping engine — rotatable ground-unit grid, object snaps, ortho
- [x] Dimensions and callouts — true-ground associative dimensions, draggable values with leaders, in-place text overrides, and multi-leader callouts
- [x] Markup list with filtering, IDs, locations, and CSV export
Signs and devices¶
- [x] Sign and device library — the FHWA Standard Highway Signs catalog plus state-specific signs, as editable vectors with retypeable Highway Gothic legends
- [x] State standards — Texas TMUTCD 2025 and California MUTCD 2026 as complete libraries with a standards filter that follows the project
- [x] Sign mounting and supports — parametric posts, skids, and barricades, with mount-detail sheet items
- [x] Sign assemblies — grouped signs on one support
- [x] Channelizing devices — cone, drum, and barricade runs with computed MUTCD tapers
- [x] Site and facility signage — site safety and fire & emergency signs with editable legends
Sign Designer¶
- [x] Panel designer with Standard Highway Signs metrics, exact FHWA arrows, route shields, and live dimension chains
- [x] Hundreds of parametric guide-sign and MUTCD figure templates to start from
- [x] Fabrication sheets and a sign schedule
Traffic control¶
- [x] Traffic control plans — ten closure strategies classified from road geometry and posted speed
- [x] Taper length, buffer space, and advance sign spacing computed from the MUTCD 11th Edition rules data, with the table cited next to every number
- [x] Typical applications and templates — the MUTCD typical applications and figure library as editable templates
- [x] AI plan generation on top of the deterministic rules engine
- [x] Pavement markings — an MUTCD Part 3 engine with junction-aware geometry and cited presets
Output¶
- [x] Drawings workspace — multi-sheet sets, viewports, title blocks, general notes, scale bars, north arrows, revision tables
- [x] PDF export with editable, measurable annotations and real PDF layers
- [x] Schedules, legends and quantities with CSV export
- [x] 3D visualization and street-view review
- [x] Presentation Maps for phased plans
Site works and events¶
- [x] Fencing — parametric fence systems with a bill of materials
- [x] Event planning mode — zones, routes, and parking-lot generation
Teams and accounts¶
- [x] Accounts, organizations, and roles
- [x] Cloud projects shared across an organization
- [x] Real-time collaboration with presence, chat, and follow-the-host
- [x] Dashboard with team, seat, and billing management
In progress¶
- [ ] Field Collection — capture photos and observations against the plan from a phone in the field
- [ ] Aerial AI clean-up — remove vehicles and shadows from the aerial imagery a plan is drawn on
- [ ] Additional state MUTCD supplements beyond Texas and California
Planned¶
- [ ] DXF export — hand the plan geometry back to a desktop CAD workflow
- [ ] Review workflows and audit trail — comment, resolve, and track who changed what between revisions
- [ ] Permit packets — bundle sheets, schedules, and supporting documents into a single submittal
Plans are drafts
Whatever the roadmap says, a plan produced by TrafficCAD is a draft that requires review and approval by a qualified engineer before use in the field, per MUTCD §6P.01.
