What Vectio does

Vectio Traffic Engineering, S.L. is an independent traffic and transport planning consultancy founded in 2007 and headquartered in Madrid, Spain. The firm delivers project-based advisory services to enterprise clients across six vertical segments: infrastructure and engineering, commercial developments and retail, residential and mixed-use developments, PPPs and concessions, public and urban transport, and city and public authorities. Named clients include Renfe, ALSA, Amazon, ArcelorMittal Spain, Autoridad Portuaria de Gijón, and Plaza Mayor Málaga. Vectio operates three offices in Madrid (headquarters), London (United Kingdom regional), and Oviedo (Asturias), and has executed projects across Spain, the UK, Chile, Colombia, Panama, Mexico, Peru, and Botswana.

The service portfolio spans the full project lifecycle from primary data collection through to strategic planning and due diligence. Field data collection employs artificial vision cameras, ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras, ATC surveys, drone recording, pneumatic tube counters, and radar technology. Analytical and modelling work combines traditional four-stage transport models and AIMSUN-based microsimulation with AI capabilities including computer vision for traffic behavior detection, predictive analytics for mobility scenario forecasting, process automation for multi-scenario comparison, and route optimization. The firm has completed over 1,500 projects across approximately 19 years of continuous operation.

Vectio operates a sales-led, direct engagement B2B model, responding to tenders and competitive bids for infrastructure and development projects. Revenue is generated through professional services contracts with project-based, custom-quoted fees and multi-year engagement cadences. Marketing is content-driven, including a corporate blog, a podcast series ('Mobility by Vectio'), and active presence across LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. The firm is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, subsidiaries, or external funding rounds.
