Abstract:

The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA), and its

continuation, the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21),

revisions to the joint FHWA/FTA urban transportation planning regulations, and

individual state and local area efforts to monitor transportation systems

performance have resulted in new data requirements. Measurement of persons

moved and speed of movement is now required for the mobility management and

congestion management processes. In addition, many strategies to improve

transportation systems performance have the goal of increasing vehicle

occupancies, or the number of persons individually or collectively carried

in all types of highway vehicles. During 1996 and 1997, the Florida Department

of Transportation undertook a statewide study of methodologies to efficiently

collect and analyze vehicle occupancy. This paper presents a brief summary of

study findings, oriented to the small to medium sized area. Overall study

findings useful in evaluating how to establish an overall vehicle occupancy

program, alternative methods of data collection, as well as techniques to

determine vehicle occupancy for single roadways are included. The paper

includes best practice recommendations for vehicle occupancy data collection,

analysis, and use for small and medium sized areas. 11p.
