I have 11 yrs exp in general civil design work with municipal clients. I am moving to Phoenix and have a job interview with a firm out there interested in my traffic experience, but they are a commercial site development consultant. What are some good resources that I can study to prepare for the interview and possibly the job down the road? I have researched some texts but would appreciate any opinions specifically on the traffic portions of them...

Any other references you can suggest would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! 字串4

I presume you're already conversant with the Highway Capacity Manual. The Institution of Transport Engineers has a comprehensive book store. http://www.ite.org/bookstore/index.asp
You might want to check out the Phoenix planning regulations and any transport plans that the city has for the future. The zoning ordinance is readily available on their website. http://phoenix.gov/CITYGOV/CODES/index.html Also look at their Code of Ordinances. http://www.municode.com/services/mcsgateway.asp?sid=3&pid=13485
My advice to you would be to concentrate on what you know and are experienced in, rather than try to cram something you think they want you to be experienced in. They are already impressed with your credentials; rather than over-extend yourself, keep the focus on your strengths.
I would imagine that the company will value your input from "the other side of the fence". Just remember that they will often be looking for the most cost-effective solution, rather than the best engineering solution. At times, this is hard to stomach.
