EMPLOYMENT DETAILS
1998-present Maunsell McIntyre Pty Ltd
Recent projects include:
Gawler Craton Advanced Infrastructure Planning Study

1996-1998 Institute of Transportation Studies, University of
California, Davis
Project: "Identification and Prioritization of
Environmentally Beneficial Intelligent Transportation
Technologies".
Troy Young was primarily responsible for the data collection and
manipulation, simulation modelling, and analysis of modeling
results to determine the environmental impacts of a range of ITS
technologies currently implemented or expected to be deployed in
the next 10 years.
1995-1997 Institute of Transportation Studies, University of
California, Davis
Project: "A Protocol for Developing Representative
Facility-Type Driving Cycles".
Mr. Young served as the lead engineer of the ITS-Davis team for
this project that worked closely with the California Department
of Transportation and included subcontracts with Georgia Tech,
San Jose State University and the California Polytechnic
Institute. Troy was responsible for organizing and coordinating
field work throughout the state, managing the data base of data
and results, developing data collection methodologies and
analysis techniques, and analyzing data for the development of
models and the protocol.
1995 Institute of Transportation Studies, University of
California, Davis
Project: "A Protocol for Project-Level Assessment of
Carbon Monoxide Emissions".
Troy Young was involved with the development of a screening
procedure for application by local government bodies to determine
if a transportation project was likely to result in high CO
emissions, and therefore required to undergo a stringent CO
analysis to quantify that impact.
