RICHMOND, BC, Canada, Apr 30, 2026 – Transoft Solutions, a global leader in transportation engineering software and road safety solutions, announced the release of TORUS 2026 with a revamped integration with SIDRA INTERSECTION, developed by SIDRA SOLUTIONS, a global leader in traffic capacity and multi-modal performance analysis software. This collaboration facilitates the information exchange between geometric design and SIDRA INTERSECTION capacity analysis.
This breakthrough marks a new chapter for roadway design, offering engineers an unprecedented ability to generate a roundabout design in TORUS using information from the SIDRA project and visualize the traffic performance tables directly in CAD.
“Roundabouts are a proven solution for improving road safety and traffic flow but designing them requires a delicate balance between geometry, safety, and performance,” says Steven Chan, VP of Transportation & Safety at Transoft Solutions. “By partnering with SIDRA SOLUTIONS, the leader in roundabout capacity analysis, we have elevated TORUS into a comprehensive platform where engineers and roundabout designers can immediately see the impact of every design choice on capacity and delays. This ensures safer, smarter, and more efficient roundabout designs.”
Key benefits in this release:
- Design and analyze in one platform: Use SIDRA INTERSECTION project files to generate a TORUS roundabout, and conduct SIDRA performance analysis without leaving TORUS.
- Validate and report with confidence: Generate clear traffic data reports and export back to SIDRA INTERSECTION for detailed checks of refinements to roundabout design.
- Streamline workflow: Eliminate back-and-forth switching between tools, reduce errors, and accelerate approvals with design and performance insights shown in one single view.
The integration is made possible through collaboration with SIDRA SOLUTIONS, whose SIDRA INTERSECTION software is trusted worldwide as the gold standard for intersection traffic analysis.
A New Era in Roundabout Design
Traditionally, roundabout design has required engineers and designers to work with multiple disjointed tools, often slowing down projects, and increasing the risk of error. TORUS now eliminates this barrier by integrating design and traffic analysis, enabling engineers and roundabout designers to deliver data-driven designs that gain faster stakeholder approval and deliver more predictable performance outcomes.
“This innovation reflects our broader commitment to empower engineers and designers with tools that keep pace with the growing demands of transportation infrastructure,” says Chan. “By combining our design expertise with SIDRA’s world-class analysis engine, we’re not just improving workflows, we are setting a new standard for efficiency and safety in roundabout design.”
Availability
The new TORUS is now available for download for licensed users on My Transoft Portal. More details on this release can be found here.
An active SIDRA INTERSECTION license is required to import SIDRA INTERSECTION project files into TORUS and export files back to SIDRA INTERSECTION.
