model to evaluate alternative scenarios including development of alternative regional transit concepts. Developed multi -class assignment model and used it to analyze freight alternatives including congestion pricing and other peak shifting strategies. Municipal Planning City of Grand Rapids — Michigan Street Corridor — developed peak period subarea model including non - motorized trips based on urban form. Model is being used to develop traffic volumes for several alternatives that are being additional analyzed using the City's Synchro model City of Omaha - Modified regional travel demand model to properly account for non -motorized trips, transit trips and shorter auto trips that would result from more compact mixed -use development. Scenarios with different roadway, transit, and land use alternatives were modeled. City of Dublin (Columbus region) — Modified regional travel demand model to properly account for non - motorized trips and shorter auto trips that would result from more compact mixed -use development. The model was applied in analyses for a new downtown to be constructed in the Bridge Street corridor on both sides of an historic village center. City of Portland, Maine — Implemented model improvements that better account for non -motorized trips and interactions between land use and transportation and applied the enhanced model to two subarea studies. City of Honolulu — Kaka'ako Transit Oriented Development (TOD) — applied regional travel demand model in estimating impacts of proposed TOD including estimating internal trip capture. City of Burlington (Vermont) Transportation Plan — Led team that developing Transportation Plan focused on supporting increased population and employment without increases in traffic by focusing investments and policies on transit, walking, biking and Transportation Demand Management. Transit Planning Regional Transportation Authority (Chicago) and Chicago Metropolis 2020 — evaluated alternative 2020 and 2030 system -wide transit scenarios including deterioration and enhance/expand under alternative land use and energy pricing assumptions in support of initiatives for increased public funding. Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Austin, TX) Transit Vision — analyzed the regional effects of implementing the transit vision in concert with an aggressive transit -oriented development plan developed by Calthorpe Associates. Transit vision includes commuter rail and BRT. Bus Rapid Transit for Northern Virginia HOT Lanes (Breakthrough Technologies, Inc and Environmental Defense.) — analyzed alternative Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) strategies for proposed privately -developing High Occupancy Toll lanes on 1-95 and 1-495 (Capital Beltway) including different service alternatives (point-to-point services, trunk lines intersecting connecting routes at in -line stations, and hybrid). Roadway Corridor Planning 1-30 Little Rock Arkansas — Developed enhanced version of regional travel demand model that integrates TransCAD with open source Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) software, and used to model 1-30 alternatives. Freeway bottlenecks are modeled much more accurately than in the base TransCAD model. 10
